Yoga for Schools

Now more than ever, children and teens can benefit greatly from the teachings of yoga. Yoga offers an opportunity for young people to slow down, connect inward and learn valuable skills such as breathing techniques, mediation and yoga postures that will be beneficial throughout life. Framed in a fun and age appropriate manner with themes interwoven throughout classes and teamed with music, props, games and personal development exercises – students will leave the class feeling calm, centred and positive.
