Each week through 100+ classes, NYM has over 2500 students smiling. The organization touches upon all venues to reach children, educators and caregivers including public schools, charter schools, independent schools, organizations catering to children and families, after school programs and health fairs and now even the entire Newark Fire Department and those serving time in jail!

For 15 years, our small but powerful 501(c)(3) has been sharing tools for well-being in education and beyond. ✨
So far we have impacted:
🧠 43,000+ children
🍎 6,000+ educators
🧘🏾‍♀️ Schools, corporations, community centers & correctional facilities

When students and adults learn to PAUSE, BREATHE, and RESET, they’re better equipped to handle stress, trauma, and everyday life.

This Giving Tuesday, we’re aiming to raise $18,000 to expand our impact AND support The Apostles’ House Grant Street Meals Program.

Will you help us reach our goal?

Fun fact, when Newark Yoga Movement was founded in 2009, Cory Booker was Mayor of Newark,NJ. We were so honored to have him support our mission then and to currently have him as one of our Board of Advisors. We are so happy for Senator and his beautiful new wife! 🥂

Now, more than ever, a PAUSE is needed to RESET and find ways to nourish our whole selves and our communities. We must do this work together. 🤝

For 15 years, Newark Yoga Movement has brought breath, movement, and self-regulation tools to children, educators, and community members across Newark.

This Tuesday, we’re inviting you to help us share these tools even further. Stay tuned for how you can support our Giving Tuesday goal and our friends .apostles.house .

“Kindness starts with me!”
Today, on World Kindness Day, we celebrate the heart of our work at Newark Yoga Movement:
✨ Kind thoughts.
✨ Kind words.
✨ Kind actions.

Through yoga, breathwork, and mindfulness, we guide our community to slow down, soften, and choose kindness — with themselves and with others. Every breath becomes an opportunity to create calm, compassion, and connection.

Newark becomes stronger when kindness leads the way.

11/13/2025

NYM students are excited to explore kind words, kind thoughts, and kind actions — the heart of what yoga truly teaches. ✨

In this moment, you can feel the curiosity, the confidence, and the desire to grow. Newark Yoga Movement is helping children build both interpersonal skills and inner personal regulation, giving them tools they can carry into the classroom, the community, and their daily lives.

This is what happens when kids discover the power within themselves — and we’re honored to guide them. 💙

Today, we pause in gratitude for all who have served. 🇺🇸
Newark Yoga Movement honors our veterans — their courage, resilience, and strength inspire the mindfulness and calm we strive to share every day.
May every veteran find moments of peace, healing, and rest today and always.
~Newark Yoga Movement ❤️🤍💙

What an incredible day returning to for staff yoga!

We’re beyond grateful to bring mindfulness, movement, and calm back to the amazing team that makes so much magic happen behind the scenes.
🎭🎶🎤

Workplace wellness matters — when corporations offer yoga and mindfulness to their staff, they’re not just promoting health; they’re cultivating focus, creativity, and compassion.

Thank you, NJPAC, for continuing to lead by example and showing that caring for your team is the ultimate form of leadership.

A heartfelt thank you to for leading such a grounding and inspiring practice — your energy truly set the tone for a mindful and connected afternoon.

Sharing important information for our community:

Emergency Food Hubs will now operate three days a week starting Wednesday, November 5, 2025.

Let’s continue to support one another and spread the word to those who may benefit.

Today, we honour our voices — the ones we speak and the ones we hold.
In yoga we honour the throat chakra, the centre of truth, expression and connection.

On Election Day, making your voice heard is a powerful act of expression and participation.

Join your community. Show up. Speak your truth. Then, take a deep breath, feel the space in your throat and let your voice carry the change you want to see.

Hey, Namaste Every Single One of You!

Since our October 2009 roll out, Newark Yoga Movement has been "stretching minds"to over 32,000 children in Newark and more than 5,000 educators, including the majority of the PE and Health teachers in Newark Public Schools. Each week through 100+ classes, NYM has over 2500 students smiling.

The organization touches upon all venues to reach children, educators and care givers including public schools, charter schools, independent schools, organizations catering to children and families, after school programs and health fairs and even the entire Newark Fire Department! Corporations have gotten involved like Audible.com, NJPAC and Rutgers University Newark because they know that every single person that can impact a child should experience self-regulating life skills. Our 9 free community classes this week give Newarkers an opportunity to unwind and de-stress at cool venues like Newark Museum, LGBTQ at Main Library, Van Buren Library, All Stars Project, Military Park, Historical Society and the awesome Clubhouse.

Now in our 10th year, we are excited to continue expansion with our Instant Calm running in a dozen schools and even expanding outside Newark to other schools. Our organization is always welcoming to new yoga guides wanting to work with us as well as volunteers to assist in classes or other aspects of the organization.

We look forward to having you visit our website or a class and see transformations happen to educators and children and parents and the community right before your eyes. We are really efficient with our funds received. In fact, just $50 teaches 60 children one time. Ohmazing. Thanks in advance for reading and hopefully joining us on the “mat” soon somewhere in Newark.
