ELENA AMNUELL

Yoga Instructor

"One tiny child can change the world. One tiny light can show the way" - Melissa Manchester.

This sentiment of potential and possibility is one that Elena Amnuell, founder of Lighthouse Mindful Kids Yoga, stands by. Elena is a certified yoga, meditation, and mindfulness teacher for children, drawing from over 10 years of experience to promote self-discovery and self-care. With her 7-year-old son as her inspiration, Elena is helping children honor themselves and their role in the interconnectedness of life. She believes that to be happy is to be truly yourself. Every child is authentically open, loving, curious. Her goal is to preserve and develop this perfect gift in kids by helping them stay pure self through Yoga and Mindfulness practices. She encourages them to "take care of their body and listen to their inner feelings" in her classes. By supporting these young minds, Elena is helping them to realize the power within them to make a difference.

Elena lives with her family in Irvine. Her 7 year old son, who is a second grader this year. He inspired her to learn more about mindful yoga for kids and share all of her knowledge with children so they can honor oneself and one's part in the delicate web of life.

A word from Elena: "In my classes, children learn to take care of their body and listen to their inner feelings".
