Our Story

It all started when…

Cheryl Silberman worked as an Early Childhood Educator for preschool and Elementary-aged Children for several years. Yoga became her source of unwinding after a long day of work. Breathing, mindfulness, and intention centered her back to where she needed to be to feel refreshed and ready for a full day of teaching the next day. Eventually, she incorporated yoga techniques into her classroom with successful and positive results.

Cheryl’s sister-in-law, Rachel, saw a big difference in her own children after spending time with Aunt Cheryl, who also used the same calming yoga techniques with her kids. Rachel, who has a strong business background, approached Cheryl with the idea to join forces and build a business around her talent and skills with yoga and children.

Together, Rachel and Cheryl wrote a curriculum that would fill-in as an enrichment programming both in the classroom and after-school. With Cheryl as an instructor, and Rachel on the business-end of things, they created a unique, effective, and entertaining program for children. The name Rock Zen Roll™ transpired, as the key parts of the program are music and movement.

Rock Zen Roll™ is currently offered in private and public schools, recreation and community centers, and dance schools throughout the Los Angeles area.
