Feedback from teachers
Feedback from El Cerrito High School teachers and
Teachers For Social Justice conference in Fall 2008
- "I appreciated the whole presentation. I learned, and I had refreshing physical activity. The idea of implementing this regime district-wide is great – I hope it comes to fruition. I also appreciated the intellectual connection BK made between the physical and emotional condition – very humane!"
- "Something I can use for myself and for my students on Thursday."
- "Helped me! Made me more aware of my own feelings and thoughts. Calmed me way down!"
- "I loved the positive, calm and flexible approach to today's training. I've come away from it with some new ideas of how I might use this in the classroom, and enough training to feel reasonably confident leading it on my own. I also appreciated the ever-needed reminder to take care of myself."
- "Starting with ABC (mindful Action, Breathing, Centering) – getting myself focused; taking home a yoga DVD I can use! Showed me how to use it in the classroom."
- "Really showed me how it is realistic in the classroom. Calm, peaceful way to unwind after class."
- "Very simple practices that I can do. Hope for future success to find out who I am."
- "Felt nurtured. Taking care of myself first! Want to apply to myself and my class."
- "I really liked how it was immediately useful. It can be applied today."
- " I am seeing the beneficial effects of TLS on my students; I feel inspired to apply yoga in my life."
- "Relevant, useful, practical; created HOPE!"
Other Feedback from teachers
- "This is amazing!!! I just tried it with my class today. They came in after lunch, and we couldn’t concentrate. I turned off the lights, and had them do some of the Niroga TLS. And it was like magic… they’re taking the quiz, silently, focused, AMAZING!"
