Mindfulness Through Movement is a yoga and mindfulness program based in Philadelphia, PA, dedicated to improving the lives of children and communities in the city. The program believes that by teaching children to clear their minds and develop social, emotional, and cognitive skills, they can thrive in the school setting.
With a team of dedicated individuals, including Peg Heldring, the MTM Recruiting and Development Director, and Sister Nancy Fitzgerald from St. Martin de Porres, the program has been described as life-changing, providing inner city kids with the tools to practice self-control, handle conflict situations, and de-escalate themselves. Through yoga and mindfulness practices, MTM aims to break the cycle of poor choices and empower urban youth to find calm and control in their lives.
