…the light in me sees the light in you…
I took my first yoga class as a teenager, returning to the mat off and on for decades. When I gave birth to my daughter while in my late thirties, I began to realize how essential practicing yoga is for the body as well as the mind. When I was pregnant with my son, my then two-year-old daughter received Marsha Wenig’s original YogaKids DVD as a gift from my mother-in-law. I was amazed at how much my daughter enjoyed doing children’s yoga. I was also thrilled that the various exercises helped her regulate her emotions.
I am now a Certified YogaKids Teacher who offers my very own blend of “Firefly Yoga.” I visit Creekside Nursery School once a month to teach free classes and am now offering weekly classes at Yoga Love of Honeoye Falls beginning in January 2020.
The Firefly level is a drop-off yoga class best for ages 4-5. We practice breathing techniques, warm-ups, sun salutations, animal poses, chants, and relaxation combined with music and song. A fifteen-week session will run from January-May, 2020. Children will earn their firefly yoga patch at the last class of the semester!
The Glowworm level is a new mommy and me yoga class ideal for children ages 2-3. Movements and poses are simplified for this age group, with the added security of a parent/caregiver present. This is also a fifteen-week session from January-May 2020. Children will learn the new “Glowworm” opening song and earn their glowworm patch in May.

My mission is to provide yoga classes that help children connect to their inner light as well as recognize the light in others. Through fun and engaging classes, I guide children on a journey of discovery about movements that help their bodies and choices that respect the planet and all its inhabitants. Together, we shine our lights to make the world a better and brighter place.
I provide non-toxic, heavy metal-free, phthalate-free mats for your child’s use during class.
