Hi, I'm Alyssa,
Yoga and mindfulness helped me deal with the stress of being a high school science teacher in New York City for over thirteen years. In 2013, I pursued my yoga teacher certification and have been teaching yoga and mindfulness ever since. Mindfulness is a social emotional learning skill that provides the foundation for safe and authentic learning experiences at work, in the classroom and in the real world. My goal is to help teachers integrate mindfulness and yoga into their personal and professional lives in order to increase mental and physical well-being. I work with New York City Schools by providing mindful professional development courses that promote staff wellness, improved school culture and social emotional learning competency. Interested in Working Together? |
