Yoga for Young Athletes (Grades 5-8): Strength, Mobility & Mindset with Abby Knight

  • Greener Postures Yoga 65 Gray Road Falmouth, ME, 04105 United States (map)

Yoga can be a powerful tool for young athletes—not only to move and perform with greater ease, but also to build body awareness, resilience, and confidence. In this workshop for students in Grades 5-8 Abby will lead an exploration in functional yoga techniques designed to support their athleticism as well as overall well-being. We’ll work on mobility, strength, balance, coordination, and body awareness while learning simple tools to help the body recover from training and competition. Athletes will also be introduced to breathing and nervous-system regulation techniques that can help with focus, managing pre-game nerves, and finding a sense of calm after intense activity. Please sign up on behalf of the participant using your email.

Abby is a child development professional, who has worked in children’s education, has taught kids' yoga and mindfulness in studios and classrooms and is a proud mom of a 7th grader.
