The Spirited Child

The Spirited Child is devoted to supporting the wellness of the growing child’s body, mind and spirit.

By providing opportunities for child and parent to deepen their bond and their knowledge of one another, The Spirited Child is proud to offer programs which encourage physical, mental, and emotional growth, and promote a healthy and harmonious lifestyle.

Jill Recchia, CIBYF of The Spirited Child, happily brings Itsy Bitsy Yoga®, Radiant Child Yoga®, and a series of “Parental Support” workshops, to families looking for nurturing and developmentally sound practices to enhance their lives and relationships with their young child.

Jill is an experienced early childhood educator and educational consultant, who has engaged her respect and affinity for young children, knowledge of their developmental growth and needs, and her personal love of yoga. Jill has found herself blessed to have been trained and guided by some of children’s yoga’s great visionaries, working directly with Shakta Kaur Khalsa, and Helen Garabedian, the founder of Itsy Bitsy Yoga. As a kindergarten and first grade teacher, and most importantly as mommy to her twins, Jill has seen the great and varied benefits and beauty of regular yoga practice for little ones first hand. And now as a certified children’s yoga instructor, Jill shares this joy with young children and their families.
