現正招募義工導師重新啟動以下已暫停的AYC計劃項目:

Youth Outreach School of Hip Hop & Youth Outreach Street Program

AYC has partnered with Youth Outreach School of Hip Hop to teach yoga to at-risk youth. In this program, AYC volunteers teach young break dancers the fundamentals of yoga, especially flexibility, strength, and balance, and also patience and self-control.

For the Youth Outreach street program, AYC volunteers teach yoga to at-risk girls (ages 14-20) in Tuen Mun.

As the suicide rate among youths are at an alarming rate, yoga is the best way forward to help the youths of Hong Kong. This used to be one of the most popular and successful projects that AYC has organized.

協青舍嘻哈跳舞學校與外展計劃

AYC與協青舍嘻哈跳舞學校攜手合作,為邊緣青少年提供瑜伽課程。在這個計劃中,AYC義工導師幫助年青的嘻哈舞蹈者認識瑜伽的基礎,特別是應對身心健康的訓練包括身體的靈活性,力量和平衡的練習,以及培養耐性和自我控制的技巧。

另一項為外展計劃,AYC義工導師會為屯門區的邊緣少女(14-20歲)提供瑜伽課程。

青少年的自殺率驚人,瑜伽是幫助香港青少年的上佳方法。這項目曾經是AYC計劃中最受歡迎和成功的項目之一。

Mother’s Choice 

Mother’s Choice is a non-profit organization that provides and promotes loving, nurturing care for babies and children needing permanent homes, and for single girls and their family facing crisis pregnancies.

The project is currently on hold due to some concerns from Mother’s Choice regarding a class venue. Anahata Yoga has agreed to provide the space to run the classes.

母親的抉擇

母親的抉擇是一間本地的慈善團體,為推動給予及提供孩子一個安全、關愛的永久家庭,以及支援孤獨無援的少女和他們的家庭面對意外懷孕。

由於場地問題此項目現時暫停, Anahata Yoga 將會贊助場地空間進行課程。

Hong Kong AIDS foundation

This project was initiated and successfully run by former AYC Coordinator Foster Barnes. As Foster moved to US, the classes ceased. Male volunteers are needed to lead and continue this project.

香港愛滋病基金

這個計劃由前AYC協調員Foster Barnes發起並成功開展。隨著Foster移居美國,此計劃暫時停止,現正需要男性義工導師帶起領導和繼續發展此計劃

Tuen Mun Hospital Breast Cancer Program

AYC volunteers teach yoga to women recovering from breast cancer at Tuen Mun Hospital. Courses normally run in six-week intervals. This is a great project for new volunteer teachers to get firsthand experience on teaching yoga to hospital patients.

Dr. Yogananth Andiappan and Anahata Yoga Masters can provide the necessary support and guidance for the classes to run smoothly and to ensure continuity of this project.

What are the tasks of AYC Project Leader?

屯門醫院乳腺癌計劃

AYC義工導師在屯門醫院為乳腺癌女康復者教授瑜伽,課程通常以六週的時間間隔進行。這是對於新加入的義工導師一個很好的項目,他們能從計劃裏獲得教授病者的寶貴經驗。

Dr. Yogananth和Anahata Yoga 的大師將會支持此計劃並提供有關的指導,以確保這計劃能順利進行以及持續發展。

AYC項目負責人的任務包括:

– 了解合作夥伴組織的需求和目標;

– 確定一個合適的時間表去實行重新啟動的計劃;

– 招募兩個或更多(根據需要)義工導師以助定期提供課程;

– 根據AYC的建議在義工小組中發佈特別通知,更改消息等。

AYC對項目負責人的期望:

– 定期與合作組織的管理層和AYC的義工協調員進行溝通,以確保項目的順利發展;

– 協助保持高水平的教學標準和禮儀,並不時確保義工們清楚AYC的指導方針。
