OCTOBER: Friday with Friends - TEENS (In Studio & Online)
Teens may attend this class in studio or online. Preregistering is REQUIRED, so that we can have the studio set up for covid-19 safety. If your tween or teen connects via zoom, I strongly recommend they have a friend attend with them so that they can practice new skills at home with a friend, while the in-person students practice skills in the studio. Two friends can attend from the same computer for the price of one, so invite a friend over and get ready to have some fun!
In October, it is all about FEARLESS FUN! We will look at the ways our fears and anxieties keep us from trying new things, meeting new people, and following our bliss. Having more fun is all about embracing our real and vulnerable selves. That can be scary, but we are up for the challenge!
BRAIN TALK
We will discuss how the two core fears of not being good enough and not getting enough can keep us from reaching for what we want to achieve. We will look at recent negative events we've encountered and discern which fear was in play. We will discuss how knowing the fear that we are experiencing can make it easier to reach for a better thought. We will also explore breathing techniques to increase our confidence when fear strikes.
MAKING FRIENDS
This month, we will talk about the fears we have that keep us from being our authentic selves. We'll explore times when we've acted in fake ways in order to be liked. We will get a chance to try out being our true selves during friendship practice.
MEDITATION & MINDFUL MOVEMENT
We will practice a tapping technique to calm our minds when fears pop up. And we will practice our favorite power poses to increase confidence, and later discuss how posture affects our mood and courage.
CRAFTS
Our craft time will allow us to socialize and chat, while enjoying creative expression. This month, we will choose a fear to conquer through artistic expression.
Register Early: Registering early really helps Stacey tailor each class to the participants and to have an idea of how to best use the class size to make the greatest impact.
Bring to Class:
