MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR

Glenda Rodriguez & daughter Mia |
Meet Glenda Rodriguez...
Please tell us about introducing yoga to children and your work with children with special needs.
Kids naturally gravitate to the playfulness that trying out yoga poses engenders. If yoga is something a parent already enjoys, I recommend the best way of introducing it to your child is by sharing your own personal practice. Leave the door open and let your child come to you!

Where do you find your "calm sanctuary"?
Yoga has long been my personal refuge, ever since I walked into a community class in a school library over thirteen years ago I have been hooked. Stepping into the flow of a practice, everything else just falls away... that one point of focus is a tremendous opportunity to realign with my own sense of self, which often gets lost in the mayhem of life.
What's on your playlist?
Parijat, MC Yogi, Deuter, Muse.... the list goes on and on! I recently downloaded Lucien's Purpose and Peace album and I am really looking forward to sharing it in my gentle and corporate classes this month.
Join Glenda on Wednesday mornings from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. for Gentle Yoga.
Glenda will also lead the Mother's Day Yoga & Spa Party on Sunday, May 10th!
