Meet Glo- Adaptive Yoga Teacher

Gloria Trevino TheraPlaYoga bio I snap my neck to any variation of mom, but you can call me Glo.

I teach kids and adults how to cultivate self-awareness, regulation, and resilience that’s playful and effective.

I guide parents and educators on how to create safe, accessible, and equitable spaces for communication, collaboration, and connection.

I mentor discerning parents, who live on the edge of chaos and exhaustion, in building unshakable confidence in parenting with compassion, intention, and respect.

I curate tools for explicit joy, empowerment, and healing and share them through group experiences, one on one, consulting, and this blog.

I am the creator and founder of an interoception and sensory wellness modality called TheraPLAYoga, which is therapeutic playful yoga.

My mission is to guide individuals and families in understanding and experiencing the profound benefits of mind-body practices through easeful movement, play, and unabashed dialogue.  Above all, empowering my students- kids and adults- to practice yoga with confidence and curiosity.  Meanwhile, discovering ways to reflect, engage, regulate, and connect more [play] fully in their lives.

Liam’s Mom

Liam’s Mom

Life really began when I met my son, Liam.  Pre-Liam-Me was studying medicine (genetics) with a strong interest in psychology and child development.

I always knew I wanted a life of helping others function well physically and mentally (specifically vulnerable populations).

It wasn’t until mom life began to unfold that I realized the path I was on, was no longer meant for who I was becoming.  Embracing my role as Liam’s mom, I turned back to practicing yoga and teaching it to him.

Mindful Parenting + Positive Discipline™

Mindful Parenting + Positive Discipline™

I’m a mindful parenting coach and a positive discipline educator.  This not only gives me the opportunity to coach parents independently but also, hold seminars and workshops for those who seek peaceful and long-lasting resolutions to conflicts and behavior challenges.  This includes parents, grandparents, sitters, caregivers, teachers, and anyone who is responsible for the care of youth- specifically youth with special needs.

I not only implement these methods in parenting my child but in working with students.
