Yoga Classes

Flexibility

Practicing yoga involves stretching of the muscles. Continued practice of stretching at a young age can lead to increased flexibility in the future.

Strength

Many poses help build basic muscle groups that are used for balancing. Holding these poses longer helps strengthen those muscles.

Hand-eye coordination

Most yoga poses we practice in class require students to be aware of where their hands are and what their body is doing in order to balance.

Balance

Our classes aid in the development or core strength which leads to an overall better balance of each individual.

Coordination

Practicing yoga motivates children to control their body and focus. This process speeds up their neuromuscular communication which leads to better coordination overall.

Motor planning

As children move their bodies to practice different poses, it creates a muscle memory that stores these patterns in their brain for future movements.

Reduces Stress and Anxiety

Yoga promotes relaxation within the body, mind and breathing. This mental and physical relaxation relieves tension and in result, reduces stress and anxiety.

Improves focus, memory and concentration

The practice of yoga requires focus and concentration while holding poses. The motor movements used throughout these poses are learnt through repetition that can help memorization skills.

Improves mood

It is scientifically proven that yoga increases brain endorphins. These feel-good chemicals lead to a better mood.
