Saturday I had the distinct pleasure in welcoming 16 school teachers – ranging from Kindergarten to college – to the wonderful world of restorative yoga.
What’s restorative yoga you ask?
The long answer: fully supported yoga positions using props so that every muscle in your body can relax.
The short answer: a yoga nap.
Why teachers?
There are so many reasons….
1. This week begins National Teacher Appreciation Week.
2. Teachers work really, really hard taking care of people. I should know, I am one!
3. The studio where I work (It’s All Yoga) truly appreciates the hard work and dedication of school teachers so we decided to celebrate by having a FREE class to say thank you.
4. Plus restorative yoga is a little slice of DELICIOUSNESS (well, if you can turn off your teacher talk brain)
Most teacher I know don’t do yoga, so I decided I needed a hook.
I invited them to my special yoga den and lured them there with the promise of a nap and milk and cookies.
Here are some of my lovely teachers post-practice (oh, and some cookies brought by Erin and Amanda!)
What’s my evil plan?
Stay tuned to find out…
