SMART-4-Kidz
SMART-4-Kidz (Stress Management And Relaxation Technique’s for Children and Adolescents) is a carefully designed and researched program that helps kids moderate the daily stresses that challenge us all these days.

Child/community psychologist Michael Portney developed SMART-4-Kidz. Trials in New York and Colorado have shown that SMART-4-Kidz is an effective method of improving the well being of kids by reducing anxiety, increasing focus, and helping to create positive beliefs about themselves and their ability to approach future opportunities with confidence. Kids become more productive students, contributors to their community, and feel better about their future.

SMART-4-Kidz is a unique hybrid of stretching, dance movement, exercise, secularized yoga poses, breathing techniques, creative activities and guided relaxation to story telling.

Group activities encourage healthy respect for others and community, while teaching that cooperation leads to good outcomes.

Classes will be held at ArtsCetera 212 Smith Street in Carrol Gardens and Solar Yoga Center, 373 9th Street in Park Slope starting Sept.20, 2004. Registration is now open. Call 212 595 KIDZ, 718 369 SMART or go to: www.smart4kidz.org.
