Family yoga classes meet

The Bodysattva Studio in Thousand Oaks offers summer yoga classes for children and expectant mothers through Mon., Aug. 8.

All classes will meet on Mondays. The cost is $12 per class.

For children, “7 and Under” from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. encourages youngsters to use their creativity to explore and pretend through yoga poses. Children will move to music, play games and act out stories using yoga poses.

The “8 and Up” class, which meets from noon to 1 p.m., will use challenging poses to increase strength and confidence, enhance focus, and balance energy. Students will use partner work and cooperative games.

“Prenatal Yoga” will meet from 2 to 3:15 p.m. Poses will strengthen and prepare the body to give birth and provide useful tools for the birthing process.

The instructor for all classes is Jessica Ramuno. She holds a teacher’s certificate in early childhood education and a bachelor’s degree in child and adolescent development. She is currently in a master’s degree program.

Ramuno has been practicing yoga for six years and is a certified hypnotherapist.
