Kids Yoga & Mindfulness Classes in San Jose & San Francisco Bay Area
The Kids Yoga program aims to empower children to embrace the principles of mindful living that will serve them for a lifetime. Yoga has a rich and diverse history with roots in various Indian philosophical traditions. Our Kids Yoga program draws inspiration from these traditions while embracing the universal principles of mindfulness, breathwork, and movement.
From young kids to teens, practicing yoga provides countless benefits, including improved flexibility, strength, and coordination. Kids yoga classes at San Jose and San Francisco Bay Area cultivate a strong sense of self-esteem, body awareness, compassion, empathy, and stress management techniques in today’s fast-paced world. Through valuable life skills, they will learn to navigate life’s challenges and make positive choices.
In our kids yoga classes in San Jose and San Francisco Bay Area, kids will explore yoga holistically, practicing various aspects such as asanas/ poses, pranayama/ breathwork, and simple mindfulness techniques. Additionally, we will discuss about making healthy choices and developing mindful living habits.
Each child will receive a yoga practice sequence to take home every week. This enables them to continue their yoga journey outside of the class and reap the benefits of a regular yoga practice, fostering ongoing growth and well-being.
