Studio and School Updates
/Hi everyone,
I hope you are all doing well! I’m writing with a few updates on how we are pivoting our programs and adapting Butterfly Kids Yoga to prepare for Fall.
For those enrolled in our August yoga camps, I will be sending out more detailed information soon. This will include safety information, protocols and daily activities. I wish I could have offered a spot in camp to everyone who was interested, but I thank you for your understanding as we had limited space this year.
We are anxiously (still) awaiting word on when yoga studios and fitness facilities can open. I will send out an update as soon as we get the green light. And you might see me cartwheeling around Fairport when that happens!
Prior to Covid, Butterfly Kids Yoga had been in 13 schools and our program was enjoyed by hundreds of kids every week. But now, with the changes necessary for the Fall, I have been working with school districts to provide teachers, administration and students an online platform of Butterfly Kids Yoga classes for students to take at school or virtually. Teachers will have access to our classes (customized by age) as a way to keep kids active during their day (compliments PE and combats long periods of sitting) and allows them to be mindful, healthy and engaged.
To help families with the upcoming changes this Fall, I am developing a new program for after school. This program will be an After School Youth Wellness Program that will take place at our studio in Fairport, NY. It is a great option for both those that are going to school in the hybrid model AND those opting for virtual learning. It will be an opportunity for kids to come in-person to a safe, healthy and trusted environment to enjoy health and wellness activities. More details to come on this, but if you would like to be notified of more information on this program, please email me. I will add you to the priority notification list as details evolve.
I will also soon be releasing a brand new Butterfly Kids Yoga On Demand Video Platform where your kids can enjoy full length classes, on demand. You can search by age group, class length, specific focus and more. Allowing your kids total flexibility and choice to enjoy Butterfly Kids Yoga classes at home. This will be very similar to what we recently launched for YOGA 170 (our adult classes), in terms of the look / feel / functionality. You can click here to see what YOGA 170 On Demand looks like to get a general sense of what the Butterfly Kids Yoga On Demand platform will look like!
My goal is to give you and your kids access to Butterfly Kids Yoga classes in a variety of ways. At school, in-person after school or online at home. I am very excited to be bringing these new options to our community and to your kids.
As always, please feel free to reach out with any questions. I miss you all, but I am excited about what lies ahead for our Butterfly Kids Yoga community.
With gratitude,
Ali
