Riverstone’s inaugural yoga trip was a great success! Eleven students from grades 7-12 traveled to Stanley with our High School English (and yoga!) teacher, Gretchen Arguedas. The students spent time practicing yoga, hiking, playing outside, and camping with unobstructed views of the Sawtooth Mountains. Yoga classes covered basic fundamental postures, breathing exercises, stress management techniques, and even some more advanced postures like headstands and arm balances.
Here are a few quotes from the participants:
“I felt rejuvenated after the trip.”
“I really enjoyed combining outdoor education with an activity I am interested in.”
“My favorite part was going upside-down and doing headstands!”
