No experience needed!

Does your kid or tween love to climb, stretch, flip and move? Give them a unique way to hang out this summer — literally!

Using a soft fabric aerial hammock, your child will learn how to build full-body strength, flexibility and coordination. While the foundation of every class is rooted in yoga, mindfulness and body awareness, it feels like pure fun and play!

Why Kids Love It:

Going Upside Down: They will safely learn how to invert, flip and see the world from a whole new perspective (a major confidence booster!).

A Cozy Retreat: The hammock acts as a private little cocoon for relaxation and mindfulness at the end of class.

Progressive Skills: Each week builds on the last. Watch your child's confidence soar as they master new poses and skills over the 4 weeks.

The Details:

Because this series builds week-by-week, registration for the full 6-week series is highly encouraged so your child gets the most out of the experience.

✨ Space is limited to ensure everyone gets a hammock! ✨

About Jamie
Jamie fell in love with yoga during the pandemic lockdown in 2020. Trained as a dancer, Jamie has always found joy and comfort in movement, and after a year of consistent practice she completed her 200-hour yoga teacher training in 2021. Soon after Jamie completed her Yin Yoga and Restorative Yoga Certification. She completed her Aerial Yoga certification at Playful Yogi Space in 2022. Jamie’s vinyasa classes are fun, creative and challenging, designed to get you out of your head and into your body. Her Yin and restorative classes are suitable for all levels and offer the perfect opportunity to slow down and reconnect through pranayama practice and passive floor poses, aimed at opening up and relaxing the whole body. Her aerial classes are designed to get you comfortable in the hammock as quickly as possible so you can fly!

Kids Yoga Fall Series with Liane Kolesar

Our Kids Yoga program is a joyful adventure in movement, imagination and mindfulness! Using tools to channel energy, release stress and make healthy choices, each class blends playful poses, creative storytelling, music and simple breathing techniques to help children build strength, balance, confidence and focus.

We’ll stretch like tall trees, roar like brave lions, and rest like quiet stars at the end of the day. Along the way, kids learn how to calm big feelings, work together, and feel proud of what their amazing bodies can do.

It’s yoga made just for them: curious, creative and fun. 🌟

About Liane
Liane first fell in love with yoga about 12 years ago. The practice changed her life and mindset and she continues on her spiritual journey to finding her true self. Liane knew that receiving her 95-hour children's yoga certification at Yoga Synthesis in Chestnut Ridge, NY would be the perfect balance of her love for teaching children and her love for yoga. A school teacher of 15 years, she shares her practice with the children in the classroom and through a morning yoga program. Liane also has a mindfulness certification which she received through a year long program from Mindful Schools. She's excited to continue to share her love of yoga to help children cope with stress and daily pressures and find peace and love within. Oh, and to have fun while doing it! 

Relieve tension, improve mobility and reduce stress. Join Jodi for a three-session stress-busting series incorporating gentle stretching and myofascial release.

We will start with some gentle movement to stretch out weary muscles, followed by a guided myofascial rolling session utilizing Rollit Therapy balls. Sign up to release tension, pain and stress.

Myofascial release (MFR) is a safe, hands-on therapy technique that applies sustained, gentle pressure to restricted muscles and connective tissues (fascia) to relieve pain and tension, increase circulation and improve mobility.

The studio has a limited number of Rollit balls for use. If you would like to purchase your own personal set of Roll It Therapy balls for the workshop, please call/text us at 845-535-1384 or email us at info@playfulyogi.space.

Thursdays, October 8-22

About Jodi Daly
Jodi has always been drawn to a good physical challenge, but it was not until she started practicing yoga that she started to experience her physicality in ways that went beyond the surface. Through years of practice and the completion of 200+ hours of training, she has discovered that yoga exists not only on the mat but in every movement and each breath. Yoga brought to light the idea that the movement of energy is essential in order to experience the richness of life and to truly access the inner self.

Jodi’s classes focus on safe alignment and breath.  She encourages students to explore all layers of themselves – from the physical to the subtle aspects of breath, energy and spirit. Her classes are challenging and supportive, offering a balance between freedom to move and time for stillness and contemplation. She finds joy in the exploration of all aspects of yoga and commits herself to being a perpetual student and enthusiastic teacher.
