I teach yoga and mindfulness practices that inspire connection, collaboration, and awareness. Colibri Yoga and Mindfulness is a resource and guide for parents and organizations seeking inner peace, strength and confidence. Learning to manage our inner landscape gives us the capacity to do great work in the world.
PEACE begins at home - the body we live in, our family and community. Managing our mind and emotions helps us to be conscious and responsible citizens of the planet. I teach yoga and mindfulness to future leaders in Seattle. You will find me in Seattle schools (public and private),o n-site business retreats, studios, community centers, and local parks.

Services
Colibri Kids Yoga in Seattle offers yoga classes that are inspired by Next Generation Yoga lesson plans and the Mindful Schools curriculum. Inspired by the fun, imaginative, and intelligent minds of children, and based on the most recent research on the benefits of mindfulness in children these classes are infused with music, breathing techniques, art, books, and sensory exploration.
Yoga in the Park classes are open to anyone, with a primary focus on kids and their caregivers. These classes take place in Seattle parks and are designed for kids of all ages with their parents or caregivers. Classes consist of fun mindfulness exercises to help families experience some calm and age-appropriate yoga and movement exercises designed to engage families and kids.
Colibri Kids Yoga with Kara-Lee can come to your home to lead a birthday yoga experience filled with music, storytelling and fun. She custom designs each birthday party by exploring and expanding upon your child's ideas. Some recent party themes have been Unicorns and Outer Space, Pokemon, Jungle Book, and Leopards.
Witnessing kids growing and learning how to become more present with themselves, each other, and the world and watching smiles appear upon their faces during relaxation pose are some of the many reasons why I love teaching kids yoga! I have my Master's in Education and Mental Health Counseling and have worked with kids and families for over twenty years in various settings; schools, public health, shelters and mental health agencies.
I want to ensure that everyone who participates in Colibri Kids Yoga with Kara-Lee has a safe, enjoyable experience. I look forward to working with your child! Liability Release: I acknowledge and fully understand that my child will be engaging in physical activities that may involve some risk of injury.

Our kids attended Kara-Lee's Yoga camp during the summer and they had an amazing time the entire week! Our kids were always excited to go to camp in the morning and were always so happy whenever they came back home from camp. We were so impressed with the overall level of intentionality throughout the week for camp in teaching the children valuable skills and lessons ranging from mindfulness exercises to strengthening yoga exercises. We were also very encouraged by the amount of hands on activities that were present throughout the week at camp. Our kids came home with fun crafts that they made

I highly recommend Kara-Lee and Colibri Yoga! Kara-Lee leads perfect yoga sessions for pre-school children, by engaging them in yoga poses though games. She guides them through meditation with gentleness, kindness and laughter. Very very nice and inspiring!

Loved it! Kara-Lee is a great instructor and works well with kids. My 7 year old enjoyed the private lesson before her studio opened. We live in Mukilteo so don't do the regular sessions, but have seen her several times when able to make it to Seattle. The techniques have helped him stay grounded and focused under small pressures. Highly recommend Colibri Kids classes.
