Yoga is a discipline that can lead kids on the path toward a calm and balanced mind, as well as help them build a strong and flexible body— tools they can use in their everyday lives. At Karma Kids Yoga, children practice fun-filled yoga poses and breathing exercises to promote physical strength and flexibility, inner strength and body awareness, a feeling of well-being and respect for others, relaxation and self control. Using interactive games, music, storytelling and animated postures, kids learn about animals, nature and basic anatomy through yoga. Kids will improve concentration and focus, stimulate their imagination and help to release energy in a fun, safe environment. Children will learn many creative ways of bending, stretching and balancing, such as the Butterfly Pose, Cat/Cow Pose, Tree Pose, and Warrior Poses. These poses help to instill confidence and concentration and a sense of calm. The goal is to get beyond just “doing” the posture. Children are asked to think about what the postures mean and what it would feel like to be these postures— strong and confident like a warrior; tall, still and grounded like a tree. Classes offered are: Mom & Baby, Parent & Child, Kids, Teens, Yoga Art, Family Classes and free Story Time Yoga. Private Family Classes are also available. The Karma Kids Yoga studio also incorporates all of this fun and learning into birthday parties. What better way to celebrate life than by learning about the body you were blessed with.
