Shalom,
This week’s episode of The Jewish yogi welcomes Harris Lender and Evan Cohn, the couple that created and run the wonderful course "Yoga Yeladim", the only Jewish Kids Yoga program in the country! It is the ultimate fusion of Jewish learning, body awareness and spiritual understanding all rolled up into a Yoga mat. It provides teachers tools to incorporate Yoga and meditation with a Jewish curriculum. Yoga Yeladim is a program that branched out of Kidding around yoga, an incredible comprehensive children’s yoga teacher training that is through the Satchiananda lineage.
These are 2 great training programs that I highly recommend.
Kidding Around Yoga was founded in 2009 by Haris “Harini” Lender (AKA Momma KAY). Haris is a certified Integral Yoga teacher at the 500 level. She has also been certified in Prenatal, Raja, Children’s, and Stress Management. She spent 11 years running Camp Yogaville and for the last 9 years at her own summer sleepover yoga camp in Florida.
Haris is extremely grateful to her teacher Swami Satchidananda, and to all of the Swamis, friends, and teachers at Yogaville that have helped guide her over the years. She is also thankful for her parents who gave her the insanely creative ability to write songs and invent lots of fun activities for the kids, and her husband Evan… AKA POPPA KAY, who is right there by her side helping her with ALL THINGS KAY!
Haris and Evan discuss creating the business and making a program that is authentic yoga while being kosher for Jewish children. Haris also shares about her father, Murray Lender (yes of Lender's Bagels"), and visiting Yogaville for a weekend of The Swami, The Rabbi, ad the Bagel Baker.
