Children

Yoga Groove (primary children)

Children are joyful & creative beings. They are naturally curious about life and discover it through imagination & play. In our kids classes we teach with this in mind, using:  ‘stories, games, drama, song, rhythm and art’ to explore all that yoga has to offer.

You may notice that our kid’s classes run for an hour rather than the standard 45 minutes. The reason for this is that in a ‘Yoga Groove’ class we intersperse the traditional physical, breathing & relaxation practices with many other aspects of yoga. Our aim is to give children a chance to look at their physical, behavioral & thought patterns. The children are encouraged to notice what is not useful in their lives & how these patterns can be changed if they wish. More importantly however, the focus is on encouraging them to see all the wisdom, beauty & potential that already exists within them.
