What is YogaKids? YogaKids is a unique approach to integrative learning using yoga as a pathway. Reading, storytelling, music, creative arts and earthcare blend seamlessly with yoga movement to educate the "whole" child. The YogaKids curriculum provides children with an exciting new way to explore and appreciate their academic and creative potential. Children learn invaluable skills that set the groundwork for meeting challenges and growing strong physically, mentally and emotionally, cultivating self-esteem for a lifetime of successful achievement. In YogaKids classes, traditional yoga techniques have been recreated in playful, simple and fun ways. Using the Multiple Intelligences Theory of Harvard educator Howard Gardner as a foundation, each pose becomes a springboard for activities that open the doorway to fully integrated learning. The 14 YogaKids elements enhance the learning experience and tap all of the senses. The Parent's Choice Award Winning YogaKids has been featured in TIME Magazine, NBC News, CHILD Magazine, Inside Edition, PBS, Yoga Journal and many other publications and broadcasts worldwide. Drs. Deepak Chopra and Andrew Weil have endorsed YogaKids . Learn more at www.yogakids.com |
