Introducing…
Yoga in a bag is designed to be the first virtual yoga training program. We have designed the first ever LIVE Yoga in a Bag Pilot Training program right here in our own back yard!
What is it…
Yoga in a bag is a unique program that includes everything you need to teach a fun and effective class at your fingertips. Even though we (Chris Crews and Stacey Shanks) have been yoga teachers for quite some time (combined almost 20 years of experience), we found putting together classes for certain populations was challenging. We both are moms with children at different ages, and found their needs to be quite different when trying to teach our children yoga.
Yoga in a Bag offers…
- A complete curriculum of classes for 4 or 6 week for certified yoga teachers.
- Live supported bi-weekly calls with us to brainstorm or trouble shoot your specific needs for your own community
- A virtual training program done with the convenience of your computer in your home. No travel or expensive certifications required! Once completed, you are ready to teach this program in any environment.
- Continuing Education hours for Yoga Alliance certified teachers.
- A private website just for YOU! This forum type website will be the host of updates to your programs, ideas specific for your populations i.e. how to apply for grants, teaching in the public school setting, song playlists. This will be a way for you to connect with other yoga teachers around the world!

A Happy Parent…
“Yoga and Life, more specifically, Stacy Shanks was a tremendous resource for yoga training for my children. I have to admit I was skeptical of how anyone would get boys, who are very much boys, to do yoga. My kids took a kids yoga class that took them around the world teaching culture and art as well as nutrition and fitness (and yoga). My kids loved it so much and learned so much that I would strongly recommend any youth programs that Stacy is conducting. My children are excited about the summer yoga program that they are attending, because of Stacy!”
