Lu Normand, M. Ed., has been practicing yoga for 20 years. She is a certified Childlight Yoga instructor and also certified through "Yoga Fit", where she will soon be completing her 200 hour RYT. She holds NH State Certifications in Biology, Special Education, and Emotional/Behavioral Disorders. Lu started her career in public education as a middle school Science teacher. After 16 years in the classroom, she went on to earn Masters Degrees in Special Education and Emotional/Behavioral Disorders. For the next 8 years she was the director and case manager of an inclusionary public school education program for students with ADD, ADHD, and Aspergers Syndrome. She now works as a private consultant in several NH schools.
Having extensive classroom teaching experience, Lu is well aware of the daily ebb and flow of energy needed for teachers and students to maintain a healthy environment for learning to occur. She strongly feels that Y4C is a wonderful program that gives teachers the tools to maintain a positive, energetic, yet peaceful sense of community in the classroom. More importantly, Y4C gives students tools and techniques to utilize in order to self regulate their reactions, behaviors, and the flow of both positive and negative emotions that may interfere with their ability to learn and be successful within the classroom community. She also feels that Y4C teaches students beneficial, lifelong skills that carry over into their world outside the classroom.
