Kids Yoga

Kids love to move their bodies, explore their potential, create and connect with others and have fun. Introducing a child to Yoga at a young age has enormous benefits as it encouraging attributes of openness, flexibility, sharing and caring in young children and promotes happy and healthy beings as well as a peaceful future.

Regular stretching and breath awareness from a young age will set the foundation for a flexible body and a healthy, unrestricted life.

Yoga also offers kids increased mental focus, better balance and co-ordination, more willpower and inner –strength…all vital assets for growing into a healthy , happy person.

Play is important as it is when children are so open to learning and growing, especially in such a safe, joyful, non-threatening and non-competitive arena as Childrens Yoga.

At our Childrens Class all aspects of Yoga are taught but in a fun and lighthearted manner.

We start by greeting each other with respect and then within the next hour we explore and practice the Asanas and Yogic Breathing through play. Many of the ancient Yoga postures are named after animals and children love to use animal cards to choose which particular stretches and movements we will practice each session. We use musical instruments, song, dance and story to make each class a wonderful experience filled with delight and laughter. Not just the childrens bodies are exercised but also their minds, memories, imagination and especially their smiles.

Self Esteem, Self Confidence, Self Acceptance and Self Empowerment are among the gifts of Yoga and children are very open and natural as they absorb the positivity and joy of their Yoga experience.

The class concludes with Breathing, Relaxation ,Visualization and guided Meditation.
