Just what does S.t.R.E.T.C.H. for Kids class offer?

This class blends dynamic S.t.R.E.T.C.H. practice with energizing music, interactive games, and imaginative visualizations designed to captivate young minds. Kids will build strength, flexibility, and coordination while exploring creative movements and calming exercises that support their physical development and emotional well-being. With a focus on self-regulation and confidence-building, this class provides a playful yet meaningful experience that encourages children to connect with their bodies and minds in a joyful and supportive environment.

Keep in mind each workshop and class is different. Kids like to explore, try new adventures, be encouraged! We keep things light, loose and not rigid, somewhat an agenda but in a class like this, we want to take our time and give each child a chance to grow at their learning abilities.

An example of one 40 minute class would be…

-Check in (get your own mat and name tag), sit down and be ready for class to start

-1 minute of breathing (every week we increase 30 seconds!…and yes the timer starts over if there is talking!)

-Introductions (gives a chance for a child to find their voice)

-Lesson of the day (discussion of what we want to learn today)

-S.t.R.E.T.C.H. (postures are fun with movements of animals and may have sound)

-Game or Activity

-3-5 minute MEDIt.ATION and relaxation

-End Class (kids clean up their mat with spray and roll up the mat and place in its spot)

Hope to see you soon!!!
