Michelle Faber

Michelle Faber is the Founder and CEO of Little Yogis Academy. As a young adult, Michelle learned to optimize her mental health through yoga and mindfulness, and when she saw signs of anxiety in her son, she began sharing her favourite practices with him. Seeing how much his emotional control and overall happiness improved inspired Michelle to create a company that would help other children in the same way, and in 2019 she founded Little Yogis.Her vision was to provide wellness curriculum in all schools so that children would become more resilient to life’s stresses. Her mission is to make the world a kinder place through early intervention. She believes if we arm our youngest learners with the tools to cope through life’s challenges, we can greatly increase the happiness and overall wellbeing of our students. She is dedicated to making the tools of yoga & mindfulness accessible and available to all children.

Amy

My name is Amy Parsons. Mother to three kiddos, family based photographer, Islander, and yoga teacher! 

I completed my first yoga training with Modo Yoga in Montreal in the fall of 2010 and went on to do my Modo Flow training in Halifax a few years later. I taught full time for several years before changing directions and operating a successful photography business here on the Island. I am a people person and feel as though my background of teaching yoga, and photographing families with young children will serve me well in this new adventure. I've been told that I make my clients/students feel comfortable and I can't wait to bring that skill with me to Little Yogis. 

While I absolutely LOVE photographing all of the beautiful babies and families on PEI (and will continue to do so), I look forward to getting back to my roots in the yoga community. The mental health crisis is real, and I see symptoms within my own family which has led me here! Children need to learn to move their bodies, self regulate, and be mindful of their thoughts/actions. I strongly believe that our children model OUR behaviour and I want to be the change within my own family. I can't wait to help Island kiddos develop healthier habits and mindfulness with the incredible Little Yogis/Busy Minds program.
