As far as the training:
We will be exploring stress and the effects it has on the body.  We will also be determining ways to manage one's stress as well as how to incorporate yoga in the classroom!
 Have everyone dress comfortable and bring a mat or towel for the yoga portion.  I will do a wide range of poses so that all are able to participate if they would like.  The last 5 minutes involves a deep breathing that is done laying down which is why the mat/towel is helpful.
 
I look forward to seeing you all again!
