As I sit to write this I am grinning ear to ear because my heart could not be more full of love, joy, pride and awe. This morning, I was honored to have two of MY girls (and when I say My I mean students of mine) for over four years teach a full on yoga class to a group of 14 students at the Ivivva Store In Dunwoody Village.
Hi, my name is Keira and I have been doing yoga for 4 years. It has been a great experience. Yoga has helped me calm down when I’m mad. Yoga makes me feel peaceful. Practicing yoga has helped me a lot by calming me down and making me more flexible. It’s fun learning new poses and helping others earn their bandanas. I wish I had started earlier. I had fun earning my bandanas, and if you do yoga, I hope that you’ll have fun earning yours.
Hi! My name is Kendall, I’m 12 years old, and I have been doing yoga for four years. In these four short years, yoga has become a huge part of my life.
From taking a deep breath before yelling at my mom or sister, teaching friends for my green bandana, to even making up flows of my own, I love every part of yoga. I especially enjoy the way I feel after class and the feeling I get from helping younger kids earn their own bandanas.
Yoga has been a steady part of my life, always helping me through a difficult week, a bad grade, or friend and family problems. I hope to continue to practice and learn as I get older.
Hello. My name is Marily Minton and I am 8 years old. I am working on my white bandana and I have been doing yoga for almost 5 years. Yoga inspires me to do big things that will inspire others to do great things in their lives. Yoga helps me in everyday life. For example, if I were about to take a test I might do a breathing pose or if I were about to perform a dance I might stretch by doing yoga. To calm me down when I feel stressed I do yoga. It helps me stretch and relax. When I just get out of a car when I am on road trips I feel all stiff so I do some yoga poses to stretch out my body. I also help my family to be happy and healthy by practicing yoga with them. I use yoga almost every day in my life and it makes me feel proud to know that I am the youngest in my class to complete all the bandanas in the grounded program. I hope my blog will inspire you to complete yours.
Namaste,
Marily M.
