I’ve happily been with TAPA for just under four months now wearing a few different hats: as administrative assistant and yoga and dance teacher. I wanted to take a moment to share with you my delight in coming on board in general, and also specifically working with the yoga students on Tuesday evenings.
It is a great group of young men that come to class and they are becoming quite the “yogis!” Through these classes we cultivate a non-competitive environment emphasizing cooperation and harmony and are building an environment wherein mutual trust and self-confidence can bloom. We do this through a focused use of the breath, various yoga poses that stretch the body, contribute to good posture (and breathing) and help to alleviate stress and promote a sense of personal agency and community. Let’s hear it for the Boys… and Yoga!
Namaste! (which translates, from Sanskrit, to ‘’the light in me honors the light in you”)
