Before beginning group lessons you will schedule a private class to get a Taste of PBJ.  Your child will sample our routines and acquire basic skills in a 1:1 or family class.  Tasters allow us to design a child-centered program that will nurture each student's development.

Yoga Program

Yoga Stretch- Young yogis will learn self-regulation & relaxation skills while engaged in fun, active games.  Picture books are often incorporated into each practice so that new poses become an extension of the story.  Children are encouraged to discuss and embody positive values such as integrity, honesty, kindness, and restraint.

Yoga Breathe- Offers predictable routine with chanting, breathwork, and close attention to technique.  Calming atmosphere with fewer distractions and slower tempo than Stretch classes.  Yoga Breathe classes are closer to the format of an adult yoga class with postures and sequences replacing games. Poses are adapted to be accessible to every body.  Yoga Breathe classes are available as private or group lessons depending on each athlete's needs.
