Mayfair Member Spotlight
Our Mayfair Member for the month of July is Layla Notta from Mayfair Parkway! Layla is part of the High Performance Tennis Program and Kids Yoga Program.
Why Layla?
Layla is 11 years old and has been playing tennis since she was seven. Layla joined Mayfair in 2018 and has enjoyed being part of the high-performance program ever since. She is very active in tournaments and she does very well.
Layla’s athleticism is enhanced by her practice of Kids Yoga here are Mayfair Parkways where she attends Corinne Sunshine’s Kids Yoga Program. She says she has learned so much about the importance of stretching and strengthening her body and mind. She’s very excited that her little sister Sonya introduced her to it. In fact, Layla is so enthusiastic about yoga, she often helps lead the classes!
Tennis and yoga go hand in hand for Layla. After every tennis practice, she takes time to stretch and relax using things she’s learned in yoga. When she isn’t practicing yoga or on the tennis court practicing with friends or her dad, you will find her in the gym shooting some hoops in basketball.
