Help LA Students Breathe for Change!

I need help covering the cost of a 200-hour course to become a certified yoga instructor and wellness leader so I can teach my students and other teachers yoga and mindfulness.

My Students

My students are part of the 4th most diverse school district in the nation! I love being in an educational environment that celebrates our differences. While I teach in a general education classroom, I have students with autism and other special needs. I have students from many different ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds as well. Bringing all of these amazing young students together in Kindergarten is truly a wonderful honor. Teaching them wholly means teaching them how to navigate not just the academics, but the personal and interpersonal skills they need to be successful and happy.

My Project

In my Kindergarten class, I have found that yoga and mindfulness is an incredibly effective method to teach students how to navigate their emotions. This practice gives my students with special needs like autism a time to shine.

This project will cover the cost of training from Breathe for Change to help me become an effective yoga teacher and wellness leader instead of relying on third party sources like Youtube videos.

This course will take me 200 hours to complete, but will not only help students in my class. I will be qualified to teach other teachers how to implement these practices for themselves and in their classrooms.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
