“For our 15 year old daughter who has a very limited social circle of her age, the interactions at Rhythmic Connections with a peer group she could relate to was a welcome change! She found a forum where she could express herself freely without being judged and enjoyed actively participating in the various activities. Lauren and Estelle have designed a program that accommodates the different levels of capabilities of each individual participant and keep them engaged. Most importantly they have adopted a communication style that provides a safe and happy environment for girls like my daughter who look at the world differently from the rest! These type of programs are hard to come by in Singapore so please keep it going!”

“For years, I have been searching for classes that provide emotional and support for my teenage daughter, who easily becomes anxious. I am so glad I found Planting Seeds with Kids. Lauren and Estelle are understanding and open, their after-class feedback reports always give me clues about how my daughter is doing in the classroom.”

We were sceptical about the concept of kids yoga at first, as we were not aware how kids could benefit from yoga or any kind of mindful practice, or that they would pay enough attention to listen and attempt what they were taught. Still, we signed up for a class.

The results were incredible. Our kids were 5 and 7 years old when they first joined, but they demonstrated a capacity to concentrate and ‘calm down’ unlike anything we’ve seen from them at home. Lauren is very talented and has honed her abilities to interact and connect with young children, and she has quickly become a very popular figure in our household. The kids ask for teacher Lauren’s yoga class every other day, which says a lot about how much they enjoy her sessions and how much fun they have in class. Thank you for helping our children learn how important it is to slow down and express gratitude, Lauren!

“My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed the classes offered by Planting Seeds with Kids. Her favorite parts of the sessions are singing and lying down in Savasana near the end, which brings her a sense of peace and relaxation. These classes have given her a valuable opportunity to bond with other similar teens, something she rarely experiences in her school environment. It’s been wonderful to see her so excited to wake up on Sunday mornings, eager to attend the classes. This level of enthusiasm has been a rare and delightful change for her.”

“Rhythmic Connections has been a great experience for my teen! It was wonderful to have Lauren and Estelle at Neural Connections leading the programme for neurodiverse tweens and teens. It was a joy to witness my daughter and the other teenagers share and connect with one organically. Oftentimes group classes are super structured and instruction- heavy, but Lauren & Estelle are wonderful at gently guiding, facilitating, and fostering authentic connecting. I can see how the teens always ended sessions with big smiles.”
