Greetings beautiful people!

I am Charine and I’m truly grateful to serve as a Yoga sharer to our community. I’ve been an educator for 7 years, an event planner for some time, and a songstress all of my life. I love to sing, teach, and inspire! One day I was teaching at an elementary school and I discovered a mindfulness room. I immediately fell in love and imagined myself as a child in that space. I dreamed of having a space to center, to reflect and to release anything that didn’t serve me. A space where I can be aware of my emotions or feelings but release them in a positive way. I thought of creating a space like this for all kids. When I was in elementary & middle schools, I only participated in drug-free programs that did serve me well as an adult today…..but where were the stress-free programs back then? That wasn’t something I experienced as a child. I began searching for a space for all kids to learn mindfulness and yoga. I began taking Yoga classes myself, enrolled in Yoga teaching training courses, and began teaching yoga to my family and friends. I discovered the Yoga 4 Philly organization and have been drawn to this amazing space ever since!  Yoga 4 Philly has inspired me to encourage and motivate children so much more. It has moved me to help children embrace, connect, and discover their inner self….to help them tap into what GLOWS about them and shine for the world to see!
