Yoga for Kids

The “Yoga for Kids” program was designed in San Francisco. I’d been reading article after article about restless youngsters given medication to prevent them from being in their natural, youthful state of restlessness! The solution? Give them an outlet through which they can release any pent up energy that lingers after recess. This outlet is Yoga.

I traveled to elementary schools and youth shelters throughout the Bay Area to provide “Yoga for Kids” 2 times a week. The benefits were incredible. A mom once came to me and said her son, who was once a nightmare when having to receive shots from the doctor, now holds her hand and says he’ll do his Yoga breathing while he watches the needle go into his arm.

“Yoga for Kids” is a gift. Not only does it balance energy, it instills an inner confidence through the physical and mental strength gained. The controlled breathing and focus also guides a child to peace of mind. It’s inevitable, & incredible to witness.

“Yoga for Kids” birthday parties are always a hit, too!
