Lowell General Hospital and the Westford Healthy Kids Coalition invites families in Westford and surrounding towns to a very special yoga workshop on Friday, Oct 12th.
CircusYoga celebrates the whole community, the whole family, and the whole person. CircusYoga fosters a spirit of play and provides a level and deep learning field for people of all ages and abilities to enjoy basic circus skills and interactive yoga practices. Kevin O’Keefe and local yoga insdtructor, Alissa Nicol, will create a relaxed, playful, and energized environment that encourages people of all generations to share challenging yet accessible experiences, such as family hatha yoga and collaborative group play; juggling, diabolo and spinning plates; clowning and physical comedy; as well as creative movement and dance.
Calling all kids! Bring your parents, aunts, uncles, and grandparents to this amazing workshop. Calling all adults who want to play more, professionals who work with children and families — classroom teachers, Yoga instructors, social workers, group facilitators, physical and occupational therapists — all are welcome and will learn new skills to use in their work.
