Girls In Tune Riding the Wave for middle school

Part of the Center's signature Girls In Tune program, the weekly Riding the Wave group focuses on coping, communication, and confidence-building through "talk," play and art, meditation, yoga, and breath work. The Girls in Tune program offers educational, experiential, playful, and developmentally appropriate mindful-awareness groups to help girls actively practice relational skills; reduce stress; increase joy; and strengthen connections to themselves and others. They're for girls who need help with coping and self-regulation skills; learning to "read" themselves and others (i.e. managing friendships); reducing anxiety, managing moods; and developing self-compassion.

Boys In Tune for middle school
This mindfulness, play, activity, and social skill-building group teaches flexibility, empathy, and positive coping skills. It's designed to help boys recognize and express emotions and become more confident and effective in their social worlds. Boys learn skills of perspective taking, empathy, and conflict resolution, while growing collaborative leadership qualities through practice both inside and outside of group. Mindfulness tools for self-regulation, attention, and concentration are taught and practiced each week. Groups are appropriate for boys who need assistance with learning to "read" themselves and others (i.e. managing friendships); reducing anxiety; managing feelings; developing attention and focus; and growing positive self-esteem.
