About Shine Bright Workshops

At Shine Bright Workshops, we believe that children learn, connect, and express themselves in many different ways. That belief has been at the heart of Shine Bright from the very beginning.

Rather than relying on one way of teaching, our workshops bring together movement, mindfulness, conversation, creativity, games, and hands-on experiences to help children explore emotional wellness in ways that feel natural, engaging, and meaningful.

Our workshops give children simple, practical tools to understand their emotions, build confidence, manage stress, strengthen relationships, and feel more connected to themselves and the world around them.

Created with Heart. Built to Connect.

Shine Bright has evolved over the years, but our purpose has remained the same: helping children feel confident, capable, connected, and empowered.

Christine Chastanet is one of the original co-founders and sole owner of Shine Bright Workshops. With years of experience creating and teaching children's wellness programming, Christine brings together mindfulness, energy awareness, emotional wellness, movement, and creative learning to create experiences that children can actually connect with.

Since 2017, Shine Bright has worked with thousands of children through school workshops, community programs, and educational experiences.

The program continues to grow and evolve with the children, educators, and communities we serve.

We Believe Every Child Has Their Own Brightness

There isn't one right way to learn, feel, communicate, or grow.

Some children learn by moving.
Some learn by talking.
Some need to create, play, laugh, or simply have a moment to breathe.

Shine Bright makes space for all of it.

Our goal isn't to tell children who they should be. It's to give them tools, encouragement, and experiences that help them discover who they already are.

Because every child deserves the opportunity to shine.

Our Story

Shine Bright Workshops began in 2016 with four friends brought together by a shared curiosity about wellness, energy work, and the mind-body connection. What started as weekly conversations around kitchen tables and coffee shop tables quickly grew into something much bigger. We began sharing ideas, exploring different approaches to wellness, and imagining ways to bring these tools to children in a simple, meaningful, and engaging way.

Before long, those weekly gatherings became the foundation for Shine Bright Workshops. Together, we created the original Shine Bright curriculum and began bringing our workshops into schools, teaching children practical tools for emotional awareness, confidence, mindfulness, and mind-body balance.

What began as four friends meeting each week has grown into years of bringing Shine Bright into classrooms and communities—and the heart of what we created back then still guides the work today.
