Kids Yoga Courses ~

Kids Yoga (4 yrs old and up) ~ The Kid's Yoga class at yoga people introduces children to the joy of yoga through music, dance, asana, art, and games. Don't be surprised if you hear “moo's” and “meow's” echoing from our studio as we explore our bodies through the awesome practice of yoga! Basic yoga poses & breathing exercises will be taught with an emphasis on body control as we explore all the amazing things our miraculous bodies are capable of. Each week will focus on a new topic ranging from simple anatomy with pop-up pictures, to mudra's with finger puppets, and maybe even a little yoga history as we learn about yoga guru's from the past.
