Plant Powered Yoga Mission:
"Our intention for Music+Movement is to provide an experience that isn't offered traditionally in schools or yoga studios. Our program consists of live music and a storytelling yoga sequence to enrich the creative energy and spark inward navigation all while being silly and definitely not quiet! The children are instructed to balance silly, playful, and creative energy with meditative, mellow, and quiet practice. We believe that the spirit of the child and the spirit of Yoga movement can bring families together in the practice of Yoga both on and off the mat."
