New Yoga class at Trackside Teen Center

Trackside is pleased to welcome Jeanne Carrillo as the new Yoga instructor for a special class this Fall open to girls in Middle School. Students will learn to connect with themselves and others while exploring different movements, breath work, focus skills, and intentional relaxation. Throughout the eight-week course, students will engage in activities which include five key elements: Connect, Breathe, Move, Focus, and Relax. Within these elements students are taught fundamental life skills that are immediately available for daily use. This class will also focus heavily on self-care and how this impacts everyday life and well-being.

Yoga & Mindfulness Instructor Jeanne Carrillo has more than ten years of experience working with youth from pre-k through young adulthood. A certified teacher as well as master's level social worker, Jeanne has also been trained in teaching Yoga & Mindfulness to youth through Little Flower Yoga. Jeanne has been successful in using Yoga & Mindfulness as well as other modalities to guide students to connect to themselves and others more effectively.

Students do not need to purchase yoga mats or equipment for this class as they will be provided by the instructor. Students should wear comfortable clothes to class and be prepared to move.

The Yoga & Mindfulness Class starts October 12 and spaces are limited. Online registration is available at www.trackside.org/yoga For any questions about this class or other programs at Trackside, email Amy@trackside.org or call (203) 834-2888.
