Got a Minute? Breathe!
:
Dallas is guiding Breath of Joy — a quick reset for mind, body, and spirit when the holiday rush is behind us… but our nervous system is still catching up. ✨

As we move from 2025 into 2026, it’s normal to feel in between: relieved, reflective, hopeful, tender, even a little anxious. This breath helps you meet all of it with care.

How it works (and why it helps):
🫁 3 consistent inhales as you lift the arms → invites fresh energy, focus, and a sense of “I can begin again.”
🌬️ 1 long cleansing exhale → helps release built-up tension, mental clutter, and emotional heaviness—like letting go of what you don’t want to carry into the new year.

Try it with us:
Inhale 1… lift.
Inhale 2… open.
Inhale 3… rise.
Then one long exhale… let it go.

Got a minute? Breathe.

Hey, Namaste Every Single One of You!

Since our October 2009 roll out, Newark Yoga Movement has been "stretching minds"to over 32,000 children in Newark and more than 5,000 educators, including the majority of the PE and Health teachers in Newark Public Schools. Each week through 100+ classes, NYM has over 2500 students smiling.

The organization touches upon all venues to reach children, educators and care givers including public schools, charter schools, independent schools, organizations catering to children and families, after school programs and health fairs and even the entire Newark Fire Department! Corporations have gotten involved like Audible.com, NJPAC and Rutgers University Newark because they know that every single person that can impact a child should experience self-regulating life skills. Our 9 free community classes this week give Newarkers an opportunity to unwind and de-stress at cool venues like Newark Museum, LGBTQ at Main Library, Van Buren Library, All Stars Project, Military Park, Historical Society and the awesome Clubhouse.

Now in our 10th year, we are excited to continue expansion with our Instant Calm running in a dozen schools and even expanding outside Newark to other schools. Our organization is always welcoming to new yoga guides wanting to work with us as well as volunteers to assist in classes or other aspects of the organization.

We look forward to having you visit our website or a class and see transformations happen to educators and children and parents and the community right before your eyes. We are really efficient with our funds received. In fact, just $50 teaches 60 children one time. Ohmazing. Thanks in advance for reading and hopefully joining us on the “mat” soon somewhere in Newark.
