Kidding Around Yoga specializes in sharing yoga and meditation with children grades 2-5; however, it is definitely adaptable to expand to children of all ages.
We use our own music produced by our founder, Ms. Haris Lender, games, as well as other tools and activities to help children focus their minds and stretch their bodies, all while having loads of fun. Yoga and meditation has been considered for a long time as a wonderful means of stress management. KAY uses a system based on the classical study of yoga and transforms it into an experience for children to both introduce them to yoga as well as inspire them to develop a practice and give them tools to take into adulthood. Kidding around Yoga (KAY) is focused on movement and postures geared towards the mind and body. Breathing techniques that help to relieve stress and sharpen foucus.and mindfulness exercises aimed at improving attention. In class, we will dance, march, jog, shake, skip, and limbo while practicing traditional Yoga poses, all while using our original music.
