TESTIMONIALS

“Family Yoga was more fun that we even expected!  My daughter and I had a blast!  We giggled, made new friends and enjoyed learning more about the art of Yoga!  We wish we could find a family yoga class that we could attend on a regular basis.  Family exercise and family fun is just what the world and our family needs more of!! Thanks so much!” ~ Tammie Ynda, SLC, Utah

“Our teachers say yoga breaks are great when transitioning to the next subject or whenever we need a fun  break.  And they help reduce anxiety and stress before a test or quiz.  Yoga Breaks have helped us integrate more movement throughout our day and reach our goals for Gold Medal Schools and Wellness!    ~  Heidi Kunzler, Principal, Uintah Elementary School

What does yoga do for me? …  I’m more at peace with myself  and I’m not so tense.  I’ve done a lot of anger management classes and none of them have worked.  Yoga literally helps me channel my anger in a good way.  It helps me emotionally, physically and mentally…—J.M.  Inmate, Salt Lake County Jail
