[YEP-DC] Professional Development Opportunity: Yoga 4 Classrooms Workshop 10/27 (Capitol Hill, Washington DC)

Dear Young Education Professionals,

I'm a Washington DC parent and yoga instructor who's taught children in public, private and charter schools in the DC area. Later this month, I'm offering a professional development workshop for teachers and and others working with children in a school setting interested in incorporating mindfulness, breathing, and yoga-movement breaks in their classroom day.

Please join me on Saturday, October 27, 2012 from 2:00 to 8:00 p.m. at Christ Church on Capitol Hill for a fun and informative one-day Yoga 4 Classrooms® Professional Development Workshop. The workshop gives you tools to help your students become more productive while creating a harmonious learning environment through integrating simple, fun yoga and mindfulness tools into your class day. 

Yoga 4 Classrooms® is an evidence-based, low-cost, simple, effective and sustainable tool designed for classrooms, which facilitates students' physical, mental, emotional and social personal growth. Yoga 4 Classrooms® is anchored in well-validated evidence-based classroom pedagogies, developmental science, cross-sectional research in cognitive affective neuroscience, tenets of positive psychology and secular contemplative practices.


The workshop includes a full-color, 230 page, illustrated Yoga 4 Classrooms™ Manual.  Yoga 4 Classrooms Card Decks will be available for purchase. 

Please visit our website www.yoga4classrooms.com to learn more about the details of the program, benefits to children, school staff and overall school climate, recent yoga and mindfulness research, educational standards alignment and to sign up for Y4C newsletter.
  

A printable flyer about the October 27 Yoga 4 Classrooms Professional Development workshop can be downloaded from my website (pdf)  along with a copy of our program executive summary (pdf).
