Namaste Child
Kids & Family Yoga
Let your pre-schooler explore their self-expression. Classes will include breath work, yoga postures (where children will become more aware of their bodies), yoga play (yoga games), songs, stories, and meditation/relaxation.
Stillness games are also incorporated to teach your pre-schooler how to relax, helping your child to understand that being still can be fun!
This is a wonderful opportunity for your child to learn ‘all on their own’ with other children their age.
Parents, you too can get involved as we include ‘story time’ at the end of most classes. This is a time that parents are invited to sit with their child while a story is shared that ties the lesson in, and helps reconnect parent with child.
Family Yoga is a wonderful way to re-connect with your child especially after a busy work week. Develop stronger parent/child bonds, increase communication, and enjoy laughter with your son or daughter. This class is idea for parents and children ages 5 to adult. Classes are 30-45min.
