I Breathe For Change because I believe everyone should have access to yoga. Yoga is a practice that encourages breath, healing, and presence and all people; young and old need to cultivate self-love and care. Yoga is often not accessible to low-income or communities of color in East Oakland. I am joining Breathe for Change in changing that reality. Yoga is for every body!

If you could do one thing that will help you not only be a better teacher, but also a better parent, sibling, son, daughter, husband, wife, friend, a better human, wouldn’t you do it? Breathe for Change is that thing—I promise you it is. Take some time for yourself to learn, to grow, to be inspired, to inspire. Breathe for Change is a movement you definitely want to be a part of—better education begins with better teachers... and the best teachers aren’t jaded, burnt out, exhausted. The best teachers are passionate, exhilarated, and joyful—and Breathe for Change will help you get in touch with the amazing teacher in you.

Serena, Assistant Principal, New York, NY

In my professional career I have reviewed hundreds of training manuals and materials, from technical mechanics, management, and policies to safety guidelines. Some have been very well constructed. Some have been very well backed-up with research. Most, however, are not worth the paper they are printed on. They are essentially shelf fillers. This is not the case for the B4C materials. Without a doubt these are the finest training materials I have seen. This is the type of information presentation that Fortune 500 companies pay hundreds of thousands for ... and still don't come close. The B4C materials are beyond professionally done; they are inspiring. The level of detail shows a genuine love and appreciation for the material. I already know that I will not be able to leave this on the shelf but will most likely wear it out and need a replacement. To put it succinctly, the materials, presentation and training are not just a class or program, they are a work of art.

I am so grateful for this most incredible and enriching professional development experience. In over 20 years in the field of education across various roles, in the U.S. and around the world, I have never found as rich and worthwhile experience as I have found in the yoga training with B4C.
