Whenever I start with a new group of little YogaSprouts, I reminded of the magic that occurs when you give the gift of yoga to a child. There is nothing quite like watching their faces as we learn new poses and hearing the sweet sounds of animal noises fill the room.
The gift of yoga does at the end of class. The gist of yoga will follow the child through out every day and throughout their lives. Yoga teaches a child body awareness, self esteem, self control, and that if just the beginning of what the gift of yoga will bring in to a child's life.
When you are giving the gist of yoga to a young child don't forget to make it fun for the child. This will help to keep them engaged, while also working on breathing techniques. Play some yoga today. Meow! Moo!!
