Prenatal Mantras and Change

October 27, 2023 by Full Circle KC

One thing for sure is change!

* If you are expecting there are constant changes with how you feel and your body, and baby’s minute to minute growth.

*If your parenting then there’s constant change with schedules and child development.

*The weather in the Midwest!

*Unrest in the world

*New classes and workshops at FCYKC!….keep reading for all the details!

We have talked mantras this month and how they can support us in pregnancy, labor and birth, and parenthood. The big change in our household is welcoming a teenager! Gah, time flies! We are celebrating and honoring this time of change as parents and as our daughter begins to navigate these years as a teenager. My mantra is “I will not fear, but celebrate and honor this stage of parenthood!”

Benefits of Yoga for Kids and Teens

March 10, 2022 by Full Circle KC

When yoga for kids and teens are designed to be playful it opens opportunity for them to experience their breath and body movement without judgement. It meets them where they are in their bodies so they can embrace changes their bodies and minds go through in growing up. Research shows that yoga and mindfulness have a positive impact on our children.

Through yoga, mindfulness, and connection, one learns tools for coping in times of stress and/or chaos. Yoga poses help improve concentration, focus, memory, coordination, and self awareness, strength, balance, flexibility, and mindfulness. Our philosophy at Full Circle Yoga is to teach children yoga poses and tools that will help support them in every day living. Yoga is taught in a variety of methods, including, games, basic and challenging poses, incorporating nature, partner poses, music, stories and so much more.

Our number one goal is to create a space for children to feel comfortable, supported and heard, so that they can feel confident, empowered, and respected.

Our kids yoga class, ages 3-6 is offered the first Tuesday of every month at 10:00am. A yoga class that is a highly engaging yet calming. Kids Yoga is designed to teach children yoga and mindfulness so that they can best manage the world around them. Through yoga poses children will improve their coordination, balance, and body awareness. We encourage caregivers to join in the fun!

Our Big Kids/Family Yoga is offered every third Saturday of the month at 1:00pm.

Additionally we are partnering with Chelsea Medlock owner of Sevana Wren Studio who offers a Family Yoga and Hike every month starting in April.

We look forward to seeing you and your amazing children at Full Circle Yoga KC!

Kids Yoga and Family Yoga!!!

CURRENTLY ALL CLASSES ONLINE!!!!

We all know yoga is good for us! And when we take a class we are reminded of all the good benefits. We feel relaxed, at ease, happy, and energized with a positive force. Full Circle Yoga KC has a goal of creating opportunities for families to enjoy yoga together as a perfect family activity. Kids Yoga and Family Yoga classes are ways a family can bond together. Sure, there are times we need our own time and our own yoga class, but if we can create opportunities to do yoga with our family we can be that role model of showing the importance of wellness for the whole family.

Full Circle Yoga KC has recently started offering more family-centered yoga classes to support our growing community.

StoryBook Yoga is a fun interactive yoga class filled with yoga, storytelling, and games. This class is designed for a caregiver and child 3-6. A good way to plant the seed of yoga in our little people!

All Harry Potter Fans + Yoga Lovers!!!! Combine yoga and Harry Potter and you have a magical yoga class!!! Harry Potter Yoga can be for the whole family or maybe with your best friend or sibling! Let your creative juices flow and feel like you’ve taken a calming draught from Madame Pomfrey!

Our newest class get’s “that was epic” from my youngest!!! Even my husband said, it was really nice to have time to just look into my son’s eyes and not have distractions for us to connect in a different way. How cool!!!! Family Partner Yoga is designed for each pose to be completed with two individuals. You and your child will have such great fun laughing and challenging yourselves, getting a workout and practicing mindfulness all in one class!

2019 Brings New Classes and Growth for Full Circle Yoga KC

January 8, 2019 by Full Circle KC

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!! It’s going to be such an amazing year for all of you!

I’m feeling giddy like that first love as a teenager! The vision for Full Circle Yoga KC is becoming a reality with our new studio in midtown KC and I can’t wait for you all to feel the energy and see the beauty of the new space! 2019 brings new classes and growth to Full Circle Yoga KC. I have you all to thank for this amazing new growth and bringing the vision to light. I have witnessed strength and beauty in Mamas who came to the studio during pregnancy yoga and prepare for the mental and physical strength it takes to bring new life into the world. I’ve heard the most beautiful birth stories, each one powerful and time-honored. I’ve seen pure love and the tender touch of partners in Prenatal Partner yoga. Watching Mamas and babies connect during BYOB and Mamas find a tribe at Full Circle Yoga KC fills my heart with joy!

So with the new year comes awesome changes! Full Circle Yoga KC is in it to support Mamas-To-Be, Partners, Toddlers, Kids, and Adults in this awesome journey of life! You don’t want to miss what’s on our schedule and whats coming and I can’t wait to see you there!

Hatha Yoga is a class that emphasizes strengthening the physical body by focusing on body posture and breath control. In this friendly flow class we work to find balance with mind, body, and spirit. Benefits of hatha yoga include maintaining a healthy body, relaxing, improve flexibility, and build muscle strength and balance. This class is open to everyone! It’s a wonderful class for Mamas postpartum. Yoga isn’t about how one looks but how one feels with yoga.

EVERY body Yoga class is for all ages of women and men and all levels of yoga experience welcome. Ground yourself in this slow and refreshing practice of meditation, breath work, and asanas (poses) to support mind-body awareness. Yoga isn’t about how one looks but how one feels with yoga. This body positive yoga flow supports your yoga practice wherever you are. This is a wonderful class for all levels and postpartum Mamas wanting to return to their mat.

Power Vinyasa class moves from one pose to the next using sun salutations and postures that connect to one another. This class focuses on building strength within this flow, so this class is best for adults with some previous yoga experience. Each class includes flow, balance, strength, compression, twists, hip/heart openers, core work and a built-in peaceful rest at the end. This is a wonderful class for the postnatal mama who feels fully recovered and busy person looking to sweat and wind down from their day. This class is not recommended for prenatal mamas.

Mama and Little Movers class is for little movers up to the age of 18 months and their caregivers. This class is filled with songs, movement, and games for older babies and early-walking toddlers.

Big Kids through basic acro (kids using partners to create poses) kids will build TRUST, in themselves and their community. This class is for all levels of big kids ages 8-12 years old.

AIReal Yoga…… coming soon in January!!! Yoga in the air!!! AIReal yoga uses looped fabric that allows you to swivel, deepen your stretch, correct your alignment, and refine postures.
