Ms. Clare is a certified yoga instructor who is excited to be teaming up with Queensbury Parks & Recreation. Recently retired after thirty four years in elementary education , she is delighted to continue her passion of teaching and sharing yoga goodness with kids. People have a misconception about yoga, it is more than funky poses. Yoga has a healing power. Each visit to the mat is an opportunity to quiet the mind. Learning stillness helps develop self-control and self-regulation. Through yoga, students become more capable in handling conflict both on and off the mat.
Ms. Clare’s goal is always to create a nurturing, safe environment for all - gathering together in a loving space, tailored to the individual. Assisting her students as they challenge themselves, finding their new levels of possibilities - mind, body & spirit.
Being playful and silly is the BEST way for kids to enjoy yoga. In this playful yoga class designed especially for elementary children, kids will learn age- appropriate yoga poses which will give them the opportunity to build focus, flexibility and strength. This class will also include breathing and relaxation exercises which help to cultivate a calm mind and body. These techniques can help the young yogis to manage stress in their daily lives. Along with yoga, this class will incorporate the love of literacy , games, music, art activities and FUN!
*Ms Clare created a non-profit literacy organization-"Literacy for Little Ones." Little yogis will be encouraged at the end of each class to take a free book home from Ms Clare's Library.
