As Yoga makes its way into school settings, educators and yoga teachers alike are witnessing the power of yoga for kids in their learning environment.

Jodi B Komitor MA, former special education teacher in the New York City school system and founder of Next Generation Yoga, is a pioneer in bringing yoga into the classroom. The philosophy of NGY is that optimal learning occurs when multiple learning styles are incorporated into teaching methods. We offer an interdisciplinary approach that combines movement, creative arts, visual and auditory stimulus and social interactions with yoga and education as the foundation.
