From Peace in Piermont
Peace in Piermont is a passion project birthed from the strong desire to teach children and their families the importance of living in the present moment. Peace in Piermont offers classes that teach children and adults mindfulness, yoga, meditation, and various strategies for coping with stress, while simultaneously building community amongst them. There are also classes and workshops available for parents that provide support for any obstacles they are enduring with their children - socially, emotionally or behaviorally. It is Katie's dream to steadily grow and cultivate sacred space for humans of all ages to learn, support and connect with ourselves, and one another, as we practice the art of “being here now.”
