About this course
In this YogiFit course with Miss Jessica kids will learn to grow into a tree, practice healthy decisions by making a salad, and go on a Space Adventure in the 30 minute class! Kids will learn our poem that we start every class with to teach them what yoga is all about!
Our other short videos in this course teach them and you other yoga mudra poses to practice on a day to day basis when you have some time! They include imagery to help with relaxation and introduce children to meditation.
Those include:
Kalesvara
Anjali
Pran &
Shaakini Mudras
In the 30 minute class we move through fun, imaginative yoga poses where kids can pretend they are flying high in the sky, growing into a tree, and traveling in outer space with their hula hoop! This class teaches children many common yoga poses in a fun way to keep them engaged.
Children will learn some sanskrit words like Namaste. They will learn the words for peace and love in another poem that helps them build compassion.
Class ends with relaxation so children can learn to rest their bodies, still their mind and breathe deeper. Relaxation also helps children to have a few moments without stimulation to explore how they are feeling internally.
Class ends with our rest poem to help children understand why they are relaxing.
YogiDance is a yoga-based exercise program for kids. We combine yoga, hula hooping and teach relaxation in every class for the following reasons:
- Yoga improves balance, flexibility, and patience
- Breath training develops healthy minds and improves focus and relaxation
- Hula hooping and games burn calories and strengthen the abdomen
- Non-competitive atmosphere Increases resilience and stress-coping capabilities
YogiDance provides children with a nurturing environment to build self-confidence where no one loses and creativity is encouraged! Expect your child to finish, happy, relaxed and ready for anything!
