Kids Yoga

 

Kids Practicing Acro YogaKids Yoga is a fun way for children to begin to build a foundation in physical and mental health and their own personal self-esteem. Through various yoga techniques such as breath and physical postures, they will benefit from stretching, strengthening as well as increased coordination and body awareness. In addition to the physical aspects of yoga, kids will be empowered with inner-strength, confidence and begin to understand the importance of respecting others and maintaining love for one’s self, both inside and out. By giving your kids these fun yoga tools to prepare them for the challenges of life they will be blessed with a strong foundation that will guide them throughout their lives.

Breath work, meditation, individua poses, group poses, and partner yoga (Acro Yoga) are explored. The classes are playful and also give the child a chance to connect peaceful with their Hearts and others.
