NEW! Yoga for Physical Education Teachers and Coaches (0550NC)

Description: Teaching children and teens life-long tools for staying physically fit and healthy can be done easily when introducing yoga to their routines. Yoga appeals to children and teens because they are still naturally flexible and because yoga postures imitate the postures of animals and other things found in nature. This workshop is geared towards physical education teachers and coaches who want to introduce the techniques of yoga including yoga postures, stretching, breathing, relaxation, and focusing exercises to their classes and practices. Several 30-45 minute routines will be taught experientially and handouts will be included outlining these routines. Please dress comfortably and be prepared to practice yoga.
