Students will learn about mindfulness and how to apply mindfulness to the practice of yoga. Yoga is a fantastic choice of exercise for kids of all ages because it has so many benefits and can be done almost anywhere. Through yoga, kids can learn to live in the moment and focus on what they are doing at that moment. Yoga is non-competitive and incorporates meditation, which adds to its power to relieve stress. When practicing yoga, you aim to focus on and control your breath, which helps you to be present in your yoga practice while also focusing on the present moment rather than all of the thoughts that can flood your mind. Learners will take time to relax their minds and bodies through stretch, yoga and meditation.
Learning Goals
