✨ Free Trial Classes This Week ✨

I’m opening up a few free trial classes for families who are curious about Mindset Movement Academy and what we’re working on right now.

This phase of our program focuses on helping kids imagine what’s possible, explore dreams and goals in an age-appropriate way, and begin turning ideas into something they can see and create. We use a blend of movement, stories, and art to keep it fun, engaging, and pressure-free.

If you’ve been wondering whether this would be a good fit for your child, a trial class is a great way to experience it firsthand.

🤸‍♀️ Ages 6–13

Confidence doesn’t just appear.
It’s built through small moments and repeated practice.

In MePower, kids spend time noticing the way they talk to themselves and learning how to use words that support them instead of shutting them down.

Projects like our I Am affirmation mirrors give kids something concrete to come back to when things feel hard, frustrating, or discouraging.

We’re now stepping into DreamPower, where kids begin imagining what they want to work toward and creating a vision for what’s possible.

So many kids have big ideas, but don’t always believe they’re capable of following them. ✨️

Over the past few weeks, we’ve been focusing on building self-esteem, inner voice, and confidence. Now we’re moving into DreamPower, where kids learn how to imagine what’s possible, set meaningful goals, practice gratitude, and understand that their dreams matter.

This isn’t about pressure or perfection. It’s about helping kids see what’s possible for them and giving them tools to move toward it.

DreamPower begins soon, and I’d love to share more if you’re curious.

Sometimes kids don’t need to be pushed harder.
They need support learning how to notice when they’re off track and how to gently realign.

One of our favorite stories follows migrating birds who lose their way.
Not because they aren’t capable, but because distractions, frustration, and doubt can pull anyone off course.

Through stories like this, paired with movement and hands-on creative projects, kids practice self-leadership:
• noticing when something feels off
• staying focused when things feel challenging
• learning how to get back on track instead of giving up.

The sewing, the art, the movement…
it’s how the lesson lands in their bodies, not just their heads.

This is the heart of Mindset Movement Academy.
✨ Our next session begins January 14, and enrollment is now open.

If you’re looking for something meaningful, supportive, and different for your child, I’d love to connect. 💛

As we move through the holiday season and prepare to wrap up our current session in early January, I’m opening enrollment for our next 6-week program at Mindset Movement Academy, beginning January 14 ✨

This upcoming session, DreamPower, is a hands-on enrichment experience where kids engage with meaningful stories, movement, and creative art in ways that feel playful, supportive, and age-appropriate. Each week includes listening to inspiring stories, moving their bodies through intentional activities, and creating art that helps ideas come to life in a fun, accessible way 🤸‍♀️📖🎨

Children are gently introduced to mindset tools such as visualization, goal setting, affirmations, and gratitude through experience rather than formal lessons. These experiences introduce mindset skills children can carry with them as they grow, helping them understand how their thoughts, imagination, and choices shape what’s possible.

This is a small-group environment designed to support the whole child and create space for curiosity, creativity, and inner growth, all while keeping things engaging and enjoyable 💛

🗓 Session Details:
• Starts: January 14th - Feb 20th
• Meets: 1 day/week on Wednesdays, Thursdays or Fridays
• Time: 10-1pm
• Ages: 6-13

🌟 Enrollment is now open
📩 Send me a message if this feels like a good fit for your child or if you’d like to reserve a spot

🌳 A little throwback 🌳

This photo was taken years ago during a kids yoga class at Fruitville Library, a space that’s been part of our journey with movement for a long time.

Tuesday, December 15th is the last FREE kids yoga class at the Fruitville Library before it closes for construction.

🧘‍♀️ Free yoga class (parent & child)
👶 Ages 3–5
⏰ 10:30 AM

🎟 Arrive early to grab a ticket from the front desk. These classes usually fill up fast.

Grateful for spaces that make movement accessible for little ones ✨️

Kids don’t need more sitting. They need intentional movement.

When kids get to create the game, listen for cues, move with intention, and adjust as they go, they’re building far more than physical skills.

These kinds of movement experiences support focus, emotional regulation, confidence, and connection — all while staying playful and low-pressure.

This is how learning sticks at Mindset Movement Academy.

✨ Our next session begins January 14.

🔥 Confidence isn’t something kids are born with — it’s something their brain learns.

Every encouraging moment, every small success, every helpful thought…
it all wires together to form a neural pattern that says,
“I can do this.”

Most of us grew up never learning this.
We thought confidence was something you either had — or didn’t.
But when kids understand that confidence is actually built inside the brain,
something powerful shifts.

They stop thinking they’re “not good at things,”
and start realizing,
“My brain can learn this.”

And that’s why this work means so much.
When children learn how their mind supports them,
they begin to step into their future with more hope, more courage,
and more trust in who they’re becoming. 💛

If this resonates with you, keep an eye out for my next post announcing our next 6-week session — DreamPower — beginning January 14th:
a beautiful journey into possibility and vision that supports children in understanding their mind, their dreams, and the future they choose to create. 🌿✨

✨ What happens when a mindset story turns into a sweet tiny holiday village? 🏡🍭🎄

This week, our learners explored the story of Canville and Can’tville — two towns shaped entirely by the beliefs of the people who lived there.

In Can’tville, people stopped after one failed attempt.
In Canville, trying again was how new ideas came to life.
Everything changed when two children from each town met in the forest and discovered how differently they viewed challenges, and what they believed they were capable of.

Instead of just listening, the kids brought the story to life by creating both towns in 3D edible art.
As they built roads, bridges, lights, signs, and tiny landscapes, something deeper unfolded:

✨ They saw how “I can’t” stops growth
✨ They felt how “I can try” opens new possibilities
✨ They explored how beliefs shape action
✨ They experienced confidence taking shape right in front of them

Seeing the towns side by side made the mindset lesson click in the sweetest, most magical way.

💙 Dream Power Program begins January 14 — a creative, inspiring experience where kids explore their dreams, imagine new possibilities for their future, and learn gentle practices like visualization that help them believe in what’s possible for themselves.

💫 Mindset Monday: The Science Behind Why We Use Stories

One of the most powerful and meaningful parts of our program is the way we use stories to help kids understand and remember important mindset skills. Stories take concepts that can feel big or abstract — like courage, perseverance, or self-leadership — and make them relatable, memorable, and fun for kids to explore.

And there’s real brain science behind why stories work so well:

🧠 1. Stories activate multiple parts of the brain

Listening to a story lights up the language centers, the emotional centers, the memory centers — even the areas related to movement and sensory experience.
More of the brain engaged = deeper learning.

✨ 2. Stories simplify big ideas

Kids learn best when they can see a concept in action.
Through characters, challenges, and choices, stories help them understand mindset tools in a way that feels real and meaningful.

❤️ 3. Stories are unforgettable

Emotion boosts memory.
Stories naturally spark feelings — curiosity, empathy, surprise, excitement — which helps the lesson stick long-term.

🔗 4. Stories create connection

Kids often see themselves in the characters.
When they relate to the story, they’re more likely to remember the tools and use them in their own lives.

🌱 5. This is why we use the Adventures in Wisdom® curriculum

Story-based learning gives children a safe and engaging way to explore real-life situations, reflect on choices, and build confidence from the inside out.

Stories → Movement → Art → Reflection
This is how mindset skills become lifelong skills.

I’m especially excited for this week! I’ve got some brand-new movement games ready to go and a festive holiday twist for our creative project that ties beautifully into our story. It’s going to be fun, meaningful, and full of those “aha!” moments where mindset skills truly come alive. I can't wait to jump into it! 🤩

Feeling thankful today for all the incredible families who are part of Mindset Movement Academy. Your trust and support mean so much to me, and I am grateful for the chance to guide your children through movement, creativity, and mindset skills each week.

Your belief in this program allows me to do the work I love. Helping kids grow, discover their strengths, and build skills they can use in everyday life is something I truly cherish.

I love seeing their confidence unfold as they try new things, connect with each other, and bring their full selves into our stories and activities.

Thank you for showing up, cheering them on, and choosing a space that supports your child's growth in such a meaningful way. I am grateful for each and every one of you. 🤍🌱🙏

It’s incredible what kids absorb through stories, creativity, and play.

During these first two weeks, we focused on two foundational mindset skills:
building positive self-esteem and honoring our unique gifts.

Our first story introduced the idea that how we speak to ourselves matters — and that developing positive self-esteem helps us feel worthy, capable, and confident.
Our second story reminded the kids that everyone brings different strengths to the world and that no one’s gifts are better or less than anyone else’s.

Through creative self-portraits and our Gift of Me activity, the kids explored these ideas in simple, hands-on ways. It’s been a joy watching them recognize their strengths and express themselves with confidence.

We’ve loved welcoming new families and reconnecting with returning students.
Such a beautiful beginning to this new session and so grateful. ✨️
