Spark Yoga and Creative Arts Program for Girls

Spark is a program dedicated to celebrating, empowering and igniting girls through yoga and the creative arts.  It is an 8 week curriculum for middle school girls.  Girls will attend a 2 hour session weekly and each week will be guided by a theme relevant to a teenage girl's experience.  We will explore topics such as "strength", "trust", and "beauty" to name a few. Each session will begin with an opening circle where the girls will dialog about the topic at hand.  We will follow the discussion with an invigorating yoga practice and then a creative arts project centering around our theme.  We will close our session with a closing circle discussing the experiences of the day and how we will bring that out into the world.  Spark is a unique opportunity for girls at this tricky age to find their own voice, stand strong in their bodies and embrace their spirits and have a ton of fun along the way. Join us each Monday at Club Emerald for the fall session and see what sparks in you!
