Back-to-School Survival: Yoga Tools for Stress, Focus & Balance - A Workshop for Teen Girls

$60.00

Heading back to school can mean busy schedules, academic pressure, social stress, and a whole new set of expectations. This supportive workshop for teen girls ages 12–18 will introduce practical yogic tools to help make the transition back to school feel more manageable.

Led by a licensed therapist (LCSW) and experienced yoga teacher (RYT-200), this workshop combines yoga, breathing practices, meditation, restorative poses, and guided reflection to help teens calm stress, improve focus, manage big emotions, and create healthy rhythms and connections for the school year. We’ll also explore the importance of rest, self-care, boundaries, and conscious community as part of staying balanced when life gets busy.

Come reset, reconnect, and build your personal toolkit for a calmer, more confident start to the school year.

No prior yoga experience needed. All levels welcome.

When: Sunday, October 11, 2026 1-4pm HST

Where: Blue Lotus Kailua (1300 Kailua Road, Kailua, HI 96734)

Cost: $60

*Minimum of 6 participants needed to run this Yoga Circle series.

Sarah developed Yoga Circle during summer 2015 to teach teen girls how to tune into their body, mind, and spirit through her unique method of integrating group counseling with the 8 limbs of yoga. As a licensed therapist (LCSW) and former high school counselor, psychology educator, and yoga instructor at Punahou School, Sarah has over 2 decades of experience running girls groups and teaching teens how to embody their best selves through yoga, group counseling, and self-reflection.

Based on current research, we know that kids who practice yoga regularly experience increased body awareness, confidence, concentration, patience, mindfulness, creativity, and emotional control. Moreover, adolescent girls who practice yoga regularly develop healthier body images, eating habits, self-esteem, and strategies for coping with stress.

If your child is aged 12-18, identifies as female, and would benefit from this workshop to learn tools for navigating the back to school transition with ease while creating conscious community, please join us!

Check out what previous Yoga Circle students have to say about these classes:

“Through this class, I learned to breathe through my stress rather than break down. I haven’t mastered it yet, but with continued practice, I will be able to use my breath to connect back to myself when I feel stressed out.”

“This class helped me learn how I sometimes get caught up in my head and don’t listen enough to my true self.”

“This class isn’t just about doing poses and learning technique... It is a chance to get away from all the stress and demands of daily life and connect with not only the other people in the class, but also with yourself through your breath and your spirit.”
