Empowering students, schools and communities... through Yoga.
Empowered Minds is committed to supporting students’ self-discovery of their inner strengths by teaching them practical yoga tools. Research has proven that movement, breathing and simple relaxation exercises release stress from the nervous system and prepare brains for learning. These secular practices are useful for anyone of any age or demographic.
Classroom teachers, who practice alongside their students, are the bridge to bringing the practices into the school day.
We offer a variety of resources to support classroom teachers. The videos are 3-5 minute movement breaks teachers and students can use to shift energy (i.e., to focus after recess or to "wake up" after sedentary periods of the day), sharpen attention and teach emotional regulation skills.
