OM SOCIETY @ SCHOOL

OM Society @ School is an initiative to bring awareness of yoga, meditation and self-care to students in New York City public schools by partnering with the school’s social work department to enhance support programs already in place.

The techniques of yoga are simple; with practice everyone can learn them and use them to their benefit. Through study and experience teens will apply yoga and mindfulness meditation as tools to manage everyday stress, and establish a habit of physical exercise that promotes overall health and builds self-confidence.

While participating in the program teens will learn strategies to work towards their goals with peer support. By the end of this one-year workshop students will become skilled enough to share their knowledge of yoga and mindfulness meditation with their community.

GOTHAM ARTS & GALLOP NYC

One highlight of the first year of OM Society @ School at Gotham Arts Academy was our visit to Gallop NYC. This amazing organization rehabilitates abused and/or abandoned horses and trains them to give therapeutic rides to differently abled children and adults, and to Veterans with PTSD. Their organization relies heavily on volunteers to operate and one beautiful Spring day in Brooklyn, New York we visited Gallop NYC and the girls learned how to groom horses and how to lead them as part if their initial volunteer training. We hope to have more visits to Gallop NYC this year as well!  

Visit their site to learn more about the important work that they do.
