As Merryn has gotten older, my focus of leading yoga has expanded from just babies. I have put many hours of research in on starting a program to share yoga with older kids, from age 5-12. kidnetics yoga will give a great introduction to yoga, while keeping it at their pace. Great games, personal reflection, and service projects will also be introduced. My goal for kidnetics yoga is to help kids benefit from all that yoga has to offer us. kidnetics yoga can:
- Maintain flexibility and strengthen growing bodies
- Enhance concentration
- Increase self-esteem
- Teach present moment awareness
- Cultivate a peaceful, relaxed state of body and mind
- Give tools for stress management
- Spark creativity in ripe imaginations
