Central to this effort is a principle held near & dear to her heart & central in her work, "There exists unlimited joy in movement & in commUNITY connection!" Example games include, the oh-so popular Yoga Bowling, full-body Rock/Paper/Scissors friendly competitions, 1-2-3 Tree (Pose); Twister (Super-sized), Breath-based soccer, & more!
