Boat Pose in Kids Yoga

Yogi Tots

Yogi tots are children ages 2 & 3.  Classes have a quick pace for the young heart and are interactive and fun!  Children are encouraged to express themselves through imagination and play.  We sing songs, take adventures, tell stories, and play games while doing yoga poses and breathing. Classes often include an art project or guided meditation at the end as well as the Longtime Sunshine closing song.

Classes for yogi tots are 35 minutes long.

Cobra Pose at Kids Yoga

Yogi Children

Yogi kids are children ages 3, 4, 5, & 6.  Classes are geared for the high energy and creative nature of children in this age group.  We center and calm our hearts before jumping into our yoga story/adventure.  Through animal and nature poses, children stretch, balance and move energetically as they play interactive games, listen to stories and imagine the world.  Yoga can help children relax, destress and have fun!  Classes often include a fun game and/or art project as well and last 45 minutes long.

Yogi Kids

Yoga classes for children ages 7-11.  Classes for this group are intended to help children develop a home practice.  Yogi Kids begin learning how to incorporate their breath into postures, how to engage different muscles, and how to become more aware of their bodies in space!  They play yoga games, create yoga stories, and begin teaching their friends postures.  Yogi kids classes include tuning in, yoga gametime, silent reflective journaling, and meditative mantra coloring as well as some basic pranayama (breathwork) tools and small group and partner meditations.  Classes are a social, fun and dynamic way for Yogi Kids to increase self awareness and a positive connection with others.
