Girls on the Mat:
Revolutionizing Girlhood One Breath at a Time
I started Girls on the Mat (GOTM) because I keep meeting women (myself included) who carry stories from girlhood that were never given space, language, or care. I want a different future for our girls—one where they know their bodies, trust their voices, and feel steady in themselves.
Our approach is simple yet profound: we teach nervous-system literacy (how to notice, name, and regulate your emotions), we practice trauma-informed tools (such as choice, consent, and compassionate cueing), and we gather in a genuine community.
Every GOTM leader is vetted and trained through our Yoga Alliance–approved curriculum, so the experience is safe, consistent, and rooted in integrity—no shortcuts, no “drop-in and hope.” Camps are the doorway; bi-monthly circles keep the learning alive.
If you lead a women’s group, parents & caregivers community, ERG/BRG, school,
or brand with a heart for girls, join us!
This is the new girlhood.
This is Girls on the Mat.

The Numbers Are Staggering
Declining self-worth: Confidence is falling at every grade level except 12th grade; girls’ self-worth and self-knowledge is down to just 55% (Girl Scouts Research Institute, Girls Speak Out (2025)).
Suicide crisis: Between 2010 and 2020, the suicide rate for girls aged 10–14 surged by 167%, reflecting the broader youth mental health crisis with rising rates of self-harm and depression (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Suicide Mortality in the United States, 1999–2020 (2021)).
Body image pressure: A Girl Scouts USA survey (August 2025) found 37% of girls overall—and 50% of those aged 11–13—wish to change their appearance, largely due to social media and negative messaging (Girl Scouts of the USA, The State of Girls 2025 Report (August 2025)).
Social media harms: A Pew (2025) survey reported that 25% of teen girls say social media hurts their mental health (versus 14% of boys). Girls are also more likely to report negative impacts on sleep, confidence, and feelings of exclusion (Pew Research Center, Teens, Social Media & Technology 2025 (December 2025)).
COVID-19 impact: During the pandemic, nearly 60% of adolescent girls reported persistent feelings of sadness or hopelessness (CDC, Youth Risk Behavior Survey Data Summary & Trends Report: 2011–2021):
30% seriously considered suicide.
Nearly 20% experienced sexual violence in the past year.
THE TIME IS NOW.
