CREATIVE MOVEMENT FOR KIDS, ages 4-7 (Erica Sigal) In Creative Movement For Kids, boys and girls use their bodies, senses and creativity to explore the joyful world of movement. Exhilarating elements of dance will help children develop physical and cognitive skills such as balance, coordination, cooperation, attention span, and self-esteem. Children will create a vivid spatial world with props like streamers, stretchy fabric and feathers, pictures, poems, stories, music, and rhythm instruments. Suggested attire: comfortable clothing, socks or bare-feet

ITSY BITSY YOGA FOR BABIES from 6 wks old, not actively crawling (Celeste LeMieux) This class, designed for babies from 4 weeks (vaginal delivery) or 6 weeks (Caesarian) after birth up to pre-crawling - contains dozens of unique yoga postures designed to support your babyÕs development. Each class is filled with calming, nurturing ways toÊeaseÊ baby's digestion, enhance bonding and improve babyÕs sleep. During a Baby Itsy Bitsy Yoga class, babies enjoy yoga while on their backs, tummies, or held in loving arms. For parents, this class is a special opportunity to meet other moms or caregivers, get support, and learn about baby's emerging personality. Most of the yoga we do in Itsy Bitsy Yoga is for baby, but you will also learn breathing and relaxation techniques as you practice a bit of yoga yourself. No yoga is experience necessary. Baby Itsy Bitsy Yoga was created by Helen Garabedian, an Infant Developmental Movement Educator, yoga teacher, and mother

ITSY BITSY YOGA FOR TODDLERS for mobile babies up to 21 months (Celeste LeMieux) Toddlers are natural yogis! In this class, tots and their loving caregiver explore over 75 developmentally nutritious poses, songs, and activities designed by baby-yoga expert and author Helen Garabedian. Each pose and activity offers parents the tools to help their babies sleep longer, digest easier, and grow stronger! Parents canÕt say enough about the supportive community that Itsy Bitsy Yoga class provides, and the new ways they have come to know and love their babies more deeply through the practice of yoga

ITSY BITSY YOGA FOR TYKES 21 months to 4 years - younger siblings welcome (Celeste LeMieux) Stretch, sing, twirl, jump and balance in this active yoga experience for preschoolers designed by Itsy Bitsy Yoga founder Helen Garabedian. Help bring focus and fun to your tykeÕs day with playful breathing activities, Òbeanie-baby balance posesÓ and special yoga games to build motor skill confidence, body awareness, and self esteem. Younger siblings are welcome as they get to look up tot their older siblings on how to do certain poses. Full parent participation required, but no yoga experience necessary. Mobile siblings attend at a discounted price of $5/class ~ non-mobile siblings free

YOGA FOR CHILDREN ages 3.9-6, 7-11 (Tara Rachel Jones) Children blossom from the inside out. At times, their pace of movement is much faster than their rate of development. Yoga gives them an opportunity to slow down, reconnect to their natural rhythm, and balance their energy. Each class presents a consistent series of postures to explore flexibility, encourage concentration and stimulate inner curiosity

YOUTH YOGA ages 12-15 (Tara Rachel Jones) As the early teen years unfurl, it can be a challenge to balance a deepening sense of autonomy with the growing responsibility and connection that go with maturity Ð andÊ all while body and mind are changing almost daily!Ê What a wonderful thing to find a place for relaxing, for stories and fun with friends, and discovering tools for inner peace. Youth Yoga explores yogic teachings through flowing series of movements, breathing practices, relaxation and meditation
