Empowering Children Through Yoga
Westporter Missy Brown says yoga is a good technique for children to learn at an early age.
Westport resident Missy Brown held a yoga workshop at her home studio on Pheasant Lane over the weekend, where she taught teachers and parents introductory yoga tools meant to help relax and empower children.
The three-hour workshop focused on an introduction to basic yoga for children, breath work, relaxation techniques and creative teaching methods that incorporate storytelling and games.
Brown has been teaching pre-school since 2002 and has been teaching yoga on all levels since 2004 from children's yoga to that used by senior residents. She has a certification in Prana Yoga, Yoga Ed and Creative Kids Yoga and Movement.
