Mandi Wolfe is committed to providing access for those who use sign language to communicate, making her yoga classes completely visual. She received her yoga teacher certification in 2007 for Kundalini Yoga through Yoga Yoga. She feels that breathing practices, poses and meditation can be healing, physically and spiritually. She became inspired to learn more about yoga when diagnosed with a hernia in the lower back, suspected to have been caused by poorly managed stress. She has since recovered and strives to share this ancient tool with others.

Mandi started learning sign language at a young age from a Deaf friend. She went on to get a BA in Deaf Education with a minor in Interpreting from Baylor University in 2005. Since then she has worked with the Deaf Community in many capacities: as a teacher, an interpreter, and a partner, and hopes to continue by providing yoga classes that are accessible for individuals of any hearing ability.

YOGA & KIDS

• Basic breathing exercises enable children (or any person) to center themselves and remain calm in difficult situations throughout the day. If these relaxation techniques become natural stress relieving procedures, then children begin to adapt independent strategies to self-meditate.
• Yoga is used to inspire, educate, facilitate and support children in developing physical health, emotional stability and self-awareness.
