10A • May 15, 2015 • Seaside Signal • seasidesignal.com Seaside Yoga to offer free kids class at farmers market By Katherine Lacaze Seaside Signal Youth yoga classes are making a re-appearance at the Seaside Farmers Market this summer and children of all ages are welcome to come stretch, relax and meditate under the instruction of Kris- tin Tschannen, of the Seaside Yoga Studio & Retreat Center. The children’s class will be from 4 to 4:30 every Wednesday of the Seaside Farmers Market, which starts June 17 and takes place weekly from 3 to 6 p.m. at WKH¿HOGDGMDFHQWWRWKH6HD- side American Legion, 1315 Broadway St. “I think it’s important to support other efforts and or- ganizations that are bringing new and varied opportuni- ties for health and wellness activities and events to Sea- side,” said Tschannen, who recently became a member of Clastop County’s Way to Wellville Strategic Advisory Council. “I want to support it any way I can,” she said, adding yoga is her “way of contrib- uting to the Farmers Market, which I’d love to see thrive here.” Tschannen offered the classes last year and found them to be received well. Being outside created a great environment for practicing yoga, she said. The children are encour- aged to bring a mat or tow- el to practice on. Each class period, Tschannen picks a different theme, such as peace or gratitude, and starts by asking the students what that concept means to them and in what ways they are grateful or what brings them peace. Her hope is for the students to make a personal connection to these princi- ples. She then goes through a sequence that’s been modi- ¿HGIRUFKLOGUHQWREHPRUH active, engaging and fun, and ends each class with a cool-down period using the corpse pose. Since children are con- stantly stimulated, she said, ³, WKLQN WKH\ HQMR\ EHLQJ quiet and still and having a reason to do it.” ³7KHUHDUHGH¿QLWHO\ZD\V NLGVEHQH¿WMXVWDVPXFKDV adults from yoga,” she said. She also instructed a yoga class at Seaside Heights El- ementary School’s Celebra- tion of the Arts event last year and will be back this year. The classes at the Seaside Farmers Market are free for children of all ages, as Tschannen donates her time for them. Her primary goal is to break down barriers – such as cost, location and lack of time — and make the practice accessible to all people. That is why she also has started an all-levels donation-based communi- W\ ÀRZ FODVV OHG E\ /RUUL Thompson. Donations of $5 to $10 are encouraged, as they go toward paying the instructor, but people should not be deterred from attend- ing if they can afford only $2 or $3 one week, Tschan- nen said. “A donation-based class is something I have been wanting to get off the ground since we opened a year ago,” she said. “This is our way of making yoga available to anyone in the community who wants to learn the prac- tice.” The class takes place from 8 to 9 a.m. Thursdays. Right now, the class has not gained a lot of traction, which is necessary to con- tinue offering it, Tschannen said. She hopes to spread the word about the class, which has been a venue for people to connect over mutual goals of health, wellness and vital- ity who might not otherwise have connected, she said. The schedule is set for the spring and summer months, or through September, but LI WKH VWXGLR ¿QGV SHRSOH would like the class offered a different day or time, that would be considered for the fall and winter months. “We’ve got to be intro- GXFLQJ WKHVH EHQH¿WV WR WKH greater community and mak- ing it accessible to them,” Tschannen said.
