Nathaniel Hohauser's Company Details
Bent On Learning (BOL) is a nonprofit organization committed to teaching yoga to children in New York City public schools as a way to directly promote health conscious, learning-ready students. We believe that:\\• The culture of today's schools and society leave a significant portion of children without any physical conditioning, creating a class of students whose health and learning readiness is below standard\\• The social and learning environments of many inner city kids leads to student stress and creates distractions that impair learning and child development\\• Yoga is unique in its ability to quickly and efficiently reduce stress, increase focus and address a child's attitude about their physical and mental wellness\\Our mission is to teach kids how to be more focused, healthier and happier in learning and in life. We provide direct yoga instruction to students in grades preK through 12 and build replicable, self-sustaining yoga programs in New York City schools most in need of greater physical wellness and learning readiness.\\To find out more about bringing Bent On Learning to your school or our upcoming teacher trainings, visit http://bentonlearning.org/join-us/\\To become involved in our volunteer-driven member organization, the Yoga Professionals Committee, visit http://bentonlearning.org/yoga-professionals-committee/
