WHY YOGA FOR KIDS?
Through the non-competitive engagement of body, breath and expression in a practice, Yoga harnesses a deep sense of well-being. We are actively empowering values around active listening, communication, expression of ideas, compassion, understanding and sense of self.
We all know children have the ability to learn and adopt knowledge to degrees far more remarkable than as adults, but the way in which each child learns can greatly differ.
This is why it is so important for all learning centre's to diversify the ways in which these core values and lessons can be taught and received. Yoga at its very essence, is one’s ability to learn via action, reflection and introspection.
