I am a certified yoga instructor and a first grade teacher. I have dreamt of the day I could get a class set of yoga mats within my classroom. For years my students and I have practiced yoga on our classroom floor. With these yoga mats, I feel my students would feel more focused and take yoga more seriously knowing they have their own space to create movement and connect with their breath. I incorporate yoga throughout the daily instruction in my classroom and have seen the benefits yoga can have on my students mental state. Students innately want to move. Through movement and breath, students are able to concentrate better throughout the day. I have seen the benefits of yoga in the classroom, some of these benefits include: increased ability to manage stress, better concentration, increased confidence, positive body awareness, enjoyable and fun! I would love to make yoga a regular daily routine and having accessible yoga mats would make this a possibility. Thank you and Namaste.
