Kids Yoga

Today we put together a plan for our first session of Kids Yoga classes. Soon we'll have lots of little yogis and yoginis jumping, playing and of course, acting like animals in aptly named yoga asanas. We're so excited about the level of energy this class will bring into the studio!

Curious to know more about the fun combination of kids and yoga, I did a quick online search for interesting info and came across a good article from Yoga Journal.

The author and well-known kids yoga instructor, Marsha Wenig writes:

"The physical movements introduce kids to yoga's true meaning: union, expression, and honor for oneself and one's part in the delicate web of life".

And isn't this true for all of us? Kids or adults, we use physical yoga asanas (poses) to move towards a better understanding of our place in the world.

More to follow on this as we get the classes started. Can't wait to report on all the little cobras, dogs and lions we have running around the studio!

Namaste,
Meaghan
