Our Kids' Yoga classes provide a holistic approach, focusing on your child's health and emotional strengths. For over 25 years, we've been the sole provider of kids' yoga classes for the Midwest, West Coast, and South, ensuring your child's comprehensive development.
Children develop strength, focus, and flexibility along with kindness, compassion, self-regulation, and inner peace. We aim to instill values that guide them not only in yoga but also in becoming better individuals amidst life's challenges.
Our efforts to bring yoga awareness to young minds have led our students to participate in USA Yoga competitions and earn national and international medals. We are proud to say that most of the children who have attended our yoga classes graduated with high scores and excelled in their chosen fields.
Curriculum & Class Levels
Our holistic curriculum includes yoga poses, breathing techniques, relaxation methods, concentration exercises, and meditation. Students explore the eight limbs of yoga, mudras, healthy eating habits, yogic lifestyle practices, and natural remedies for common ailments. Each child receives a practice sheet and video/audio recordings, supplemented by free 20-minute online practice sessions twice weekly.
Level 1: Young participants will explore yoga through engaging classes that enhance physical strength and focus.
Level 2: Children will learn partner and group poses, challenging poses, concentration exercises, breathing techniques, and practical yoga applications.
Level 3: Our teenage students learn yoga postures that enhance inner and outer strength, flexibility, balance, and stamina. They'll also explore advanced techniques, yoga philosophy, mudras, and character-building.
Level 4: Certification for Yoga Instructor
Advanced Yoga Classes: Students explore challenging advanced yoga poses based on the UPFNA syllabus.
Competition Yoga: If your child is interested in competing, we can refer you to specialized coaches for an additional fee. Alternatively, students can practice competition postures on their own. Our Advanced Yoga classes do not cover all USA Yoga competitive-level asanas, but we practice some to help students prepare. Click here to see our past USA Yoga participants.
