Our Founder
Hi, I’m Carly Walker, mom, yogi, wellness seeker and the founder of Child’s Pose.
While I am a 2-time Ironman finisher with 25 marathons under my belt, nothing makes me feel as good as yoga. The practice has been amazing for my mental and physical health and helps to keeps me injury-free during my endurance training and races. What started as an occasional practice quickly became a passion and over the past 20 years, I’ve spent at least 3 days a week on a yoga mat.
Once I became a mom to my two kids, Grant and Harper, I decided to look at my personal passion for yoga a little differently and began my child yoga certifications. My first certification was with Karma Kids in New York City and the second was from Deep Play with Missy Brown. I’ve since completed my 200-hour adult yoga training with Kaia Yoga.
With the support of my #1 fan, my husband Peter, I am thrilled to be able to channel my great respect for this practice alongside my trainings to offer yoga to children here in Fairfield County and beyond (check out the virtual offerings). My goal is to have kids leave class with a bigger smile than they started with and it’s an honor to help them lay a foundation of mind + body connection and the superpowers of breathwork.
Namaste,
