Nancy Siegel's Workshops For Teachers
"As a child psychiatrist, I have been impressed by Nesheemah's professionalism. I also am pleased to see they are helping children incorporate yogic principles into everyday life by teaching self-soothing tools that are not only easy to learn, but also really work"
Steven Wruble, MD, Director, GroupTalk.org"Nancy's Teachers' workshop was fabulous on so many different levels. In addition to being an extremely powerful team building experience for our staff, the teachers walked away with practical and meaningful strategies that they could immediately implement in their classrooms."
Jessica Kohn, Early Childhood Director
Ben Porat Yosef
"The Teachers' workshop was both an enriching professional and personal experience. The teachers came away with numerous strategies that they can implement in the classroom. It was also an enjoyable and relaxing collaborative experience. IT helped us get in touch with our inner selves."
-Tova Resnick-Meyer Early Childhood Director
The Moriah School
"As a child psychiatrist it was amazing for me to see how the multi-sensory, kinesthetic experience of yoga helps children to develop an acute awareness of their internal state, physically, mentally, and emotionally. In addition, Nancy's work with imagery fosters the nurturing of lively, creative minds, which in turn, assists children in academic areas such as reading comprehension and written expression. Through this practice, children are developing a crucial tool to assist in their ability to visualize what they are reading and expand upon the ideas which have been painted in their minds when writing."

"I came to this workshop thinking about this child and that child and how what I would learn could help them. Yes, I did learn helpful techniques that I will be able to use with those children and my entire class, but what I really gained from the workshop was just for me. It was nice having an experience just for me that helped me relax and get in touch with my inner world. Thank you."
-Rebecca, teacher"My son, Josh, has an autistic spectrum disorder and as a result has difficulty making interpersonal 'connections' with people. When he met Nancy there was an instantaneous connection, one that has been sustained throughout their friendship. Josh feels calm and secure in the atmosphere she has created and as a result of this he has developed a greater self confidence."
-Andrea, Josh's mom"Nancy, your workshop helped remind me how to look at the simple ways I can look out the eyes of a child and create a safe, calm and fun environment for them. Thank you so much." Sarah, primary teacher (3-6)
