Yoga helps students learn techniques for concentrating, reducing stress, and connecting to their bodies in a loving way while having fun and building fitness.  As the physical, mental, and social-emotional benefits of yoga for children become more broadly understood, demand for yoga in the school setting is growing.

After School

Breathing Space is pleased to offer afterschool classes at several neighborhood schools. We are vetted through the DCPS Out-of-School-Time office as an aftercare provider, so can set up classes at schools directly, but are also happy work through your schools primary afterschool program provider to offer enrichment options.

Breathing Space after school classes incorporate age-appropriate poses, movement, breathing, games, and relaxation. Classes often revolve around a philosophical or natural theme and sometimes will include books, art or other creative activities to explore a theme and always include some form of quiet relaxation.

During the Instructional Day

Breathing Space has offered weekly or occasional classes at a variety of schools, preschools, and daycares in the DC area. Sometimes we offer class in conjunction with physical education or other special subject.

Yoga is designed to be practiced regularly, so we offer discounts for schools willing to engage in a year-long contract. We are happy to work with your school to develop a custom arrangement.

For Organizations or Private Learning Groups

Classes can be customized for lots of different organizations and learning needs. If you have a group and an appropriate venue, we can set up a recurring class – weekly or daily.
