Yoga for Youth

Yoga for Youth started as one teacher fulfilling community service hours and has grown into a program now celebrating 2 years at the facility and pursuing status as a non profit organization.
We are very proud to be working in coordination with the faculty staff at San Francisco’s Juvenile Hall, bringing this program to more and more youth. We started with one class and now offer a total of 5 weekly, 4 in the Hall and 1 to our youth on probation thru Youth Guidance Center Improvement Committee, http://ygcic.com/.
Thru our commitment to weekly sessions we build trust and skill sets.  They include mindful breath and movement, willingness to learn new things and take direction. And perhaps most importantly,  the experience that they can do something new and excel at it. Over time they are building a knowledge base in affecting how they feel physically and emotionally thru asana practice. Our practice is founded in the Forrest Yoga tradition.
Yoga for Youth is an approved program for community service hours for Forrest Yoga teachers completing certification. There are volunteer opportunities and training for assisting and teaching with our team, for teachers from other traditions also. Please inquire.

We have a new facebook page and also a new page on our Program Directors site, Sandy Till.com, http://sandytill.com/FY_For_Youth.htm
