Not only does kids yoga promote mobility, body awareness and breath awareness at such a formative age, but also begins to guide children into emotional regulation, through simple mindfulness practices. Encouraging children to find those calm and centred spaces within themselves. Get your little ones into yoga early with a Kids Yoga class!
Got a 5-10 year old? This is for you (well, them really but who doesn’t love a stretch?)
Here are just a few benefits of kids yoga:
– Enhances their mobility, strength and coordination
– Improves concentration levels + introduces mindfulness early
– Promotes a healthy sense of body awareness
– Teaches stress and anxiety management
– It’s fun and inclusive!
Interactive classes for little ones typically begin with a warm-up game or song, moves into a story based yoga sequence, and ends with a wind-down, some breathing and thanking our bodies. The teacher uses a range of engaging mediums, like stories, songs, music, books, breathing ball, visual aids and all sorts of lovely props (think bubbles!)
