Yogi Squad: Building Calmer, More Connected Classrooms Across North Texas

What if $25 could give a child an entire school year of tools to manage stress, big emotions, and everyday challenges?

At Yogi Squad, it can.

This North Texas Giving Day, we’re raising funds for Mindful Classrooms, Connected Communities, our classroom-based program bringing mindfulness, movement, emotional regulation, and literacy directly to students and educators in Title I schools across Tarrant County.

And this year, your impact is easy to see:

💛 $25 = 1 Student. 1 Full School Year.

For just $25, you can support one student for an entire school year of mindfulness programming.

That means months of opportunities to practice how to pause before reacting. How to breathe through stress. How to recognize big emotions. How to move when their body needs a reset. And how to return to learning feeling calmer, more focused, and ready to try again.

Because school can be hard.

Testing is hard. Friendships are hard. Big emotions are hard. And many children are navigating challenges far beyond the classroom.

We may not be able to remove every stressful experience from a child’s life—but we can give them tools to help navigate it.

🏫 Mindfulness, Right in the Classroom

Through Mindful Classrooms, Connected Communities, Yogi Squad instructors travel directly into classrooms each month to lead short, engaging 15 minute lessons.

We move—not the students—making it possible to reach entire campuses with minimal disruption to the school day.

Each lesson introduces students and educators to practical tools they can use immediately, including:

• Mindful breathing and emotional regulation strategies

• Movement students can do right from their desks

• Mindful vocabulary and shared emotional language

• Literacy and shared-language connections

• Strategies for stress, anxiety, testing, focus, and big emotions

Most importantly, we don't show up once and leave.

Students and educators practice with us throughout the school year, helping turn simple mindfulness techniques into familiar tools they can reach for when they need them.

📚 What Makes Yogi Squad Different?

We aren't teaching kids to be yogis.

We're teaching kids to notice their breath, move with awareness, understand what they're feeling, and know what to do when big emotions arise.

And literacy is woven throughout our work. Mindful vocabulary, movement, and emotional learning work together to make concepts engaging, memorable, and accessible for young learners.

These aren't tools kids only use during a Yogi Squad lesson. They're tools they can carry into testing days, difficult friendships, frustrating assignments, challenging moments at home—and eventually, into adulthood.

📊 Our Impact Is Growing

Since 2018, Yogi Squad has served more than 60,000 students and facilitated more than 3,000 classes in partnership with schools and community organizations throughout Tarrant County.

During the 2025–2026 school year, Mindful Classrooms expanded to five Title I campuses, bringing consistent mindfulness and movement programming to thousands of students and educators each month.

Now, we're building on that momentum for 2026–2027—and we need our North Texas community behind us.

🌟 Give One Student a Year of Mindfulness

This North Texas Giving Day, we're asking our community to think about what $25 can do.

It can help a child learn to pause.

To breathe.

To recognize what they're feeling.

To reset.

To try again.

$25. One student. One full school year of mindfulness programming.

Your donation isn't simply funding a 15-minute lesson. You're helping build skills that can travel with a child long after Yogi Squad leaves the classroom.

Help us build calmer, more confident, more connected classrooms across Tarrant County—one student at a time.

💛 Give $25. Support one student for one year.

We are Smart. We are Strong. We are Kind. We are Yogi Squad.
