Yoga Classes for teenagers

Yoga classes for teenagers started on the 16th June 2023. I will be expanding classes to include all adolescents ages 10 and above. The response was wonderful must importantly from those who attended. They left feeling relaxed and calm and have booked for more sessions going forward. I offer sessions in person or online and have the pleasure of seeing the benefits of those who attend.

Adolescents and teenagers are under allot of pressure trying to navigate the pressures of school work, exams as well as everyday life. Its important to remember that as our brain develops some areas, around the prefrontal cortex and limbic system take longer to mature in the adolescence and in teenager stages.

Teenagers are naturally hardwired to take more risks and move away from parents or care givers at this time. The brain is not fully developed enough in adolescence or the teenager stages to potentially rationalise emotions. Emotional learning is still developing as is judgement in managing self and situations they may come into contact with.

So much of life adds to stress responses being triggered. Yoga is a positive way to help teenagers relax more as they navigate this time and hopefully grow to enjoy it . Being able to relax is essential in staying more relaxed over time which in turn help day to day functioning.

Its an absolute pleasure to teach this class it reminds me of being a teenager and reminds of the things that helped in challenging times. I will be expanding my classes to include all adolescents or young people from age 10 and above. I also offer hypnotherapy for adolescents including teenagers who may be struggling with their mental health, stress including exam and performance stress and confidence issues.

Contact me for more information or to book for the teenager classes (on line or in person) or hypnotherapy. The first yoga class is free.
