Storytime Yoga at Trinity Body Arts

 

For the last twenty years, I have found joy in sharing magical written words and illustrations with the students in my classrooms. The sparks of inspiration and insightful wisdom found in the minds of young people, as they find connection and compassion through stories, have built thoughtful communities of learners and created relationships based on empathy and imagination. Storytime Yoga is an opportunity to combine my passion for children’s literature and yoga for a playful and heartfelt experience. Please join me for four weeks as we give breath to stories that bring body, mind, and heart into community. Stephenie Going  We are now accepting new students in our youth martial arts program, with classes for students ranging in age from 5-16.  Details are available on our website: trinitynaturalmedicine.org
