Holistic Community Kenya YOGATOTO™ – Yoga for Children
Children are natural-born yogis. Their spontaneity, flexibility and energy are inspirational and sometimes challenging for parents. Hatha Yoga follows a systematic system to eventually reach a state of complete mental and physical wellbeing (and ultimately attain union with the eternal aspect of ourselves), the benefits of yoga for children are very much the same as for adults. Through practicing yoga children can discover a quiet place inside themselves and eventually, feeling calm and centered becomes a vital component of their identity. Their behavior and relationships with others improve, which in turn reflects on their schoolwork and all areas of their life
Children’s Yoga classes are fun, creative and enjoyable for boys and girls from the age of 3-6 and 7-14 year olds. Your child’s yoga class is designed to use their imagination with posture work whilst teaching them how to breathe correctly, how to relax their bodies and maintain their posture. They are taught about balance and focus, co-ordination of the movement with the breath, and the concept of counter pose. The class incorporates lots of vocal work and the aim is to help children build their esteem and have the confidence to identify their place within their surroundings without being competitive. There will also be relaxation and the practice of enjoying quiet times usually at the beginning and at the end of the session. This may take the form of coloring mandala’s as a form of meditation or just lying down with visualizations
