Before & After School Yoga Classes
Bring the joy of yoga to your child’s school! Yoga for kids is a great way for children to learn how to reduce stress, as well as improve concentration, mood, balance, and flexibility. And best of all, kids think yoga is fun!
All of our classes are held at school locations so children can attend the class right after dismissal time at their school. We do not have a separate studio space, and do not run classes off-site.
CLASSES:
can be scheduled either before or after school
Convenient – classes arranged at your child’s school with classroom pickup at dismissal time!
Home school option – want a class for your home school group/co-op? Simply provide the space, and we will come to you!

Yoga is an ancient healing practice known to calm the body, mind, and emotions. In this playful yoga class designed especially for elementary aged-children, children will learn yoga poses, breathing, and relaxation exercises which cultivate a calm mind, increase strength and flexibility, improve gross and fine motor skills, improve concentration, and give children the tools to manage stress in their daily lives.
