Two successful trauma informed yoga life skill classes with URY Board Member & URY Instructor & today.
Why? Bc: Team Work.

URY Skill Focused Instructor and Supportive Co-Teachers make an enormous difference than me teaching alone. I’m grateful to connect with the kids and offer important tools for self regulation with yoga, coaching and mindfulness.

Thank you for all the support- and having Kat as our Program Director helped us take this to the next level. Looking forward to our new onboarding instructors starting soon!

Happy to share mad skills with the young men in juvenile hall. I mean, she’s gifted, like a masterful wise soul sharing real lived experiences that truly meet our students where they’re at. Which is in the present moment, in a place they really don’t want to be.

Today I joined two groups shift dramatically after yoga life skills. Such a gift, so grateful.
