The list of benefits to yoga can go on forever. However these are only a few of the many things yogis and families can look out for. The Kid’s/Youth Winter Series is focused on breathing and awareness of one’s self. As a result, yogis learn different lessons at each class, and are encouraged to take the lesson home to share with others. Each session is taught using languages kids can understand. Since this series is specifically for them, yogis practice poses using fun names. The focus isn’t on having each student get into the perfect asana/pose.
Success
My intention is to help students discover more about themselves and to have fun while doing it. Successful completion of this series is defined by the goals yogis set for themselves. This can mean yogis know how to control their breathing when in stressful situations, or they are consistent in pursuing and reaching the goals that they set for themselves. Ideally, ogis are able to share their knowledge with others.
Get Involved
Parents are invited to be actively involved in the series, For instance, parents can join their yogi(s) in practicing breathing exercises at home. As parents, your influence and support is very much needed. If you are inspired, pull up a mat, and join in!
