Casa Comunidad's Community Yoga Program continues to teach and inspire children through free weekly yoga classes. Nikhol Esteras Roberts, Co-Director of Casa Comunidad, teaches yoga to children in the kindergarten in Corral del Risco on Thursdays, and at Emiliano Zapata on Fridays. There are at least twenty students in each class.
While the kids do yoga, Nova Pennison, the other Co-Director of Casa Comunidad, teaches free English classes to their mothers. By offering English to the mothers, and yoga to the children at the same time, the mothers have the opportunity to focus on learning without being distracted. Wow, what lucky ladies.
If you are interested in volunteering in this program let us know! We are always looking for English teachers and assistants, as well as yoga helpers. Or, if you would like to donate yoga mats or ESL materials we would be incredibly grateful. Contact nikhol@peacemexico.org.
