Yoga Club (gr. 3-6)
Yoga Club engages children through age-appropriate exploration of Yoga postures, or asanas, and games and activities that encourage community building and introspection. Classes end with visual imagery and relaxation, helping children discover the power of quieting mind and body.
Yoga Club is an exploration of self in community. Classes integrate community and relationship-building activities that allow children to mindfully practice compassion, support and respect in their relationships with others. Recognizing that positive relationships are the result of a positive sense of self, we encourage children to look within themselves to discover their own strengths and gifts. This process of discovering and learning to listen to our inner voice is a foundation of Yoga.
Each 8-week session focuses on a theme related to this journey. As children complete the activities designed to reinforce their learning and practice of each theme, they earn unique pins to affix to their ChildLight Yoga mat bag (included in the one-time registration fee). In this way children enjoy a sense of accomplishment and progression as they explore ideas related to a positive and healthy lifestyle.
All of our sessions are appropriate for children who are new to Yoga, as well as for those who are continuing their instruction.
