What Yoga for Kids is
A children's yoga class, not an adult class made shorter. Postures arrive through animals, stories and games; the breathing is taught as something to use before a test or after an argument. Cameras on, so the teacher can correct a posture rather than hope it is right.
A child who can steady their own breathing has something for life.
What they will learn
- The standing and seated asanas a child can hold safely, by their Sanskrit names
- Surya Namaskar, learnt step by step until the sequence runs without prompting
- Simple pranayama: long breathing and bhramari, and when to reach for it
- A short daily practice a child can do alone, on a mat or on the carpet
What the benefits are
- Posture that survives a school bag and several hours of screens
- Somewhere to put restlessness, and a way back from it
- Strength, balance and flexibility built without competition
How the 45 minutes run
- Warm-up and joint loosening, done as a game
- The asanas of the week, demonstrated and then corrected one learner at a time
- Breathing practice, then a few minutes of stillness
- A two-minute practice to keep going between classes
What they still have in twenty years
A body that has been taught to move well and a breath they can steady on purpose: two things that stay available to them on every hard day for the rest of their life.

Before you book. Yoga classes are a practice, not medical treatment. Tell us about any injury, surgery, pregnancy or condition before your first class, and speak to your doctor if you are under treatment. We do not diagnose, treat or cure anything, and a teacher will tell you plainly when a posture is not for you.
