Instructors 

My name is Agnieszka Flynn. I began my yoga journey in 2001 by practicing with videos at home and also at the different yoga studios.

I have completed my 200 Hr Yoga Teacher Training Certification through Lifepower in 2024.

What I love about yoga is that, it always has something new to teach you, no matter how long you have been practicing. Yoga gives you an opportunity to deepen the mind-body connection, focusing on mindfulness and breath awareness.

Hi my name is Edgar and I am the chess instructor at the Justice park district. I enjoy going out fishing, playing volleyball, and playing chess! I have played chess for 5 years and during this time I’ve placed 2nd place on 5th board in conference matches, placed in the top 20 players at the Greater Chicago chess tournaments, and won numerous matches against different schools. My goal here is to spread my knowledge of chess to those who want to want to learn and to people who want to expand upon their skills.
