Yoga for Kids
Practicing Yoga is a great way to increase concentration, improve self-confidence, lower stress and improve body control and awareness. Miss Sam has prepared an engaging yoga class to help kids strengthen their bodies and minds. No experience necessary. Please bring a yoga mat and a water bottle. (Held in the Education Building)
Instructor: Sam Burke
Yoga has been a part of Sam’s life since she was a child, growing up on her island home of Tasmania, Australia. It was important to her parents that Sam and her siblings experience something new and different, in a group setting, that would help develop their personal strength, balance, self-esteem and flexibility, while engaged in a nurturing environment. It was an empowering experience. As children, Sam and her two brothers and sister learned how to relax and quiet their minds through movement and breath work. They gained confidence, learned how to become self-aware and how to focus and they had fun! Yoga makes you feel good! One of Sam’s favorite things about instructing yoga is seeing students benefit and witnessing the resulting positive effects they will experience after stepping off the yoga mat, feeling refreshed, balanced and nourished. In 2011, Sam graduated from New York’s Fireshaper Yoga School RYT200 teacher training-a registered Yoga Alliance School. Sam has participated in required continuing education and in 2019 graduated from Original Hot Yoga Academy’s RYT350 T.T.-an officially registered OHYA school, right here in her home town of Vero Beach, FL, where Sam lives with her partner Mike, dog, cat and bee hives amidst their jungle-style garden. When Sam instructs a yoga class, she seeks to help others feel healthy and happy. Through the creative sequencing of yoga poses, students build strong flexible bodies and calm minds that will assist in the prevention of injury and improve overall health and well-being every day, on and off the mat!
