Little Family Yoga - Breathwork & Dinosaurs!

Michelle James, RYT-200, RCYT has a degree and background in early childhood education. In 2012, after 20+ years working with children and families in various settings, she discovered the benefits and joys of sharing yoga with children. This marked the beginning of her yoga journey. She is an experienced, certified ChildLight Instructor sharing developmentally-appropriate, playful and engaging yoga and mindfulness education at the ChildLight studio where she teaches Peace Baby, Tots, Little Family, GirlPowerment and Mother Daughter Retreats and leads the summer camp and yoga party program. Michelle also joined the office staff as Studio Coordinator in the fall of 2016! She is a student at heart, always eager to continue her own education through experience and discoveries. Michelle completed her 200hr in January 2019 with Yoga Muse School of Yoga at Bridge Studio, So Portland, ME. Her training is grounded in a trauma informed, empowerment approach to Hatha/Raja Yoga. She now looks forward to sharing all that yoga has to offer, both on and off the mat, with students of all ages. Off the mat Michelle enjoys crocheting, softball, spending time in nature - kayaking, fishing, hiking and most of all laughing with her husband, three grown children and two precious grandchildren.
