For many, the passage into Autumn means a shift from Summer to the academic year. That passage is marked by changes of season. Long days and short nights turn to shorter days and longer nights. Summer days may have been filled with recreation, camp, family, and travel. Now schools days are filled with academics, homework, extracurricular activities, and busy schedules.

With all the changes, some students and families experience anxiety, stress, and difficulty balancing all they need to do. 

Our Autumn Yoga Sequence can help yoga practitioners of all ages to feel a deeper sense of balance within. 

With yoga and mindfulness, kids can become more calm, focused in school, and empowered to start every day with confidence and compassion.

Explore the benefits of Yoga and Mindfulness

• Attunement to nature
• Experience in mindfulness with real-world context
