• Yoga is non-competitive.
Kids practice being supportive and sensitive because they must slow down, notice and work with their own experience. It is process focused, not goal focused. Everyone can do it and feel good about it.
• Yoga requires staying present.
Kids develop focus, concentration and discipline. They experience how their own mind-body system works and therefore learn how to work better with them selves. Kids learn how to impact their inner state becoming more responsible for their choices and health. They can choose to bring themselves into balance with breathing and non-thinking or positive thinking.
• Yoga is practical, low cost preventative medicine
Kids learn techniques for balancing and restoring themselves
• Yoga serves as the counter pose to the challenges of modern life
Kids shift the stress response in their autonomic nervous systems and move from fight or flight to creativity and enjoyment.
• Yoga creates: balance, integration, flexibility, quiet
Kids slow down brain waves, align body, breath and mind and become present. They also wring out tensions and toxins. They feel better, are more relaxed and can focus and participate fully in the learning process.
• Yoga expands and enriches awareness and the experience of our inner life.
Kids are less reactive, more self-aware and make better choices.
• Yoga is a tool we can use to navigate and fulfill our own destiny
Kids develop a greater sense of SELF; they are more creative, communicative and compassionate.
• Yoga is not an intellectual process; it is experiential and social
Kids feel the difference in themselves and the group after doing yoga. They personally experience coherence and calm and have given it to themselves.
