New Boutique Firm Teaches Elite Kids, Yoga to De-stress & Help Them Excel

NEW YORK - Sept. 2, 2014 - PRLog -- Summary:
Ex-professor starts company- Namaste Concierge, whose services include private yoga at home- to help kids (including special needs) excel.  After leaving a bruising academic career, at the height of the recession, Vivinne Williams was depressed and burned-out.  The daily practice of yoga & meditation helped her to survive the stress of work-place bullying & subsequent unemployment.

Now, Williams is utilizing her background to provide support for both uber-busy, uber-stressed parents and their kids-- with customized yoga on demand in their homes.  Some teacher specialties for kids:  Hip Hop & Mindfulness and a Dance/Yoga Blend.

It being New York City, there are some wonderful providers of kid’s yoga classes like Karma Kids and Yogi Beans.  But what sets Namaste Concierge apart, according to Williams,  “is that our focus is on customized, in home, private (for special needs) & semi-private sessions.  And in addition to being certified kids yoga teachers, our team also have education backgrounds.”  Many of the teachers have worked with special needs kids extensively.

According to the Centers for Disease Control the, “Number of ambulatory care visits (to physician offices, hospital outpatient and emergency departments) with attention deficit disorder as primary diagnosis:  9.0 million.”  (average annual, 2009-2010.) http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/adhd.htm

With such an apparent rise in kids with autism and ADHD, Namaste Concierge feels that yoga based practices (along with other interventions,) can help kids to:

- Calm down/ Increase ability to focus

- Make better choices

 - Build body awareness & control

The NYC company, which opened this August, also offers private yoga & massage therapy services for adults.  Social responsibility is a built in factor for this fledgling company- the company will channel a percentage of profits to organizations serving underprivileged populations.

Bio:  Vivinne (Kala) Williams has been featured in Self, Yoga Journal & Essence magazines.  After a brutal stint in academia, she resumed her previous career as a yoga and mindfulness meditation teacher in NYC.  Her focus now is on supporting busy career-driven New Yorkers to thrive.  She recently started Namaste Concierge, a company that sources yoga teachers and massage therapists to homes and businesses.
