My class has really benefited from the poses in the book Yoga Calm.
Took the training to become certified as a Yoga Calm instructor and
have loved seeing the kids in my class look forward to a few minutes of
stillness and time for themselves throughout our busy day. It's nice for
me too as a teacher to unwind for a few minutes. The kids have better
concentration and are more centered as a result of taking some
much-deserved time out of our day to practice these poses.
