Become a beacon of support for teens in your community! Our specialized training will teach you how to create safe and welcoming spaces where teenagers can express themselves freely through yoga.
Teen mental Health is in crisis. Even before the Pandemic, teens mental health was on a precipitous decline fostered by increasing social pressures, social media, increasing academic and sports pressures, as well as declining sleep and nutritional habits. The Pandemic and the subsequent stressors only served to accelerate this decline, ultimately leading to the US Surgeon Generals declaring teen mental health a national emergency in December 2021. Between 2009-2021 rates of depression in teenagers rose from 26% to 44% and emergency room visits for self-harm jumped by a shocking 88%. The pandemic accelerated this decline with a 45% increase in self-harm and suicide cases in the first half of 2021 alone!
This one-day workshop is for anyone wanting to help during this crisis: yoga teachers, educators, parents, grandparents and mental health professionals. We will combine the practical emotional self-regulating tools from yoga and link them to the strong scientific support and latest research showing their effectiveness at helping the unique teenage brain, physiology and nervous system reset. Yoga tools to include simple postures, breath practices and guided mediations and imagery will be taught. Additionally, we will learn how to teach teenagers about the chakras as well as the Yamas and Niyamas as energetic tools of self-regulation.

YogaFit YogaBarre is a fun and functional way to create a balanced body, mind and spirit. Utilizing principles of yoga, ballet barre, pilates, strength training and dance allows for a complete integration of fitness modalities for well-being. We utilize a barre or chair to provide stability, balance, and support as we move through exercises that target the core, glutes, arms, and legs. The major benefits are improved posture, muscle definition, weight loss, increased mobility, and reduced stress.The YogaFit Yoga Barre program helps individuals to become stronger and feel better as they perform their everyday activities. The program is based not only on muscle balancing, but also on balancing the common postural and movement patterns we create in our daily lives.
The average American adult spends at least 6.5 hours sitting every day and the number is higher for teenagers, according to the Washington Post (The Big Number: The average U.S. adult sits 6.5 hours a day. For teens, it’s even more. Linda Searing April 28, 2019). This means many Americans are moving through their day with forward head posture, rounded shoulders, a lack of natural curves in the spine and a chronically tight front line. YogaFit Yoga Barre can provide individuals with a movement practice they will enjoy at the time and for years to come. YogaFit Yoga Barre is also one of the fastest, most effective ways to burn calories and get toned. Your students will love the functionality, fitness and fun they will experience every time they show up on their mat!
