Robbi-Layne Robertson
Guest Appearance on May 22nd
I found yoga while on a trip to India for a friend's wedding. I really enjoyed the “doing/activity” of yoga and felt great after, both in my body and mind. The inner peace that comes from practicing is what keeps me coming back to the mat. The physical benefits of yoga: strength, balance, flexibility and focus support all my other sports and outdoor activities.
Tools for Living Tools for Life inc. has become a means for me to share through and apply my years of academics. It is a great method to pass along teaching skills, love of activity, propensity for play, counseling and communication training to create opportunities for fun non-competitive, social, emotional, physical learning and exploration.
