A fun and practical approach to exercising with kids.

Yoga for Kids is a colorful and fun exercise program for young beginners that take child and adult through the stages of a yoga session. From the warm-ups to seated and standing postures to the relaxation phase, this book is the perfect guide to enjoying the natural benefits of yoga:

  • Increase general health and fitness, flexibility, strength, balance and coordination
  • Keep bones healthy, strong and correctly aligned, and the muscles around them supple and toned
  • Calm the emotions, releases anxiety and encourages relaxation
  • Enhance creativity and imagination

The postures are specially selected to appeal to children. Each exercise is introduced by a story that explains the origins of the pose followed by illustrated step-by-step instructions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yoga for Kids, July 17, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I like this book: the photos are great, getting into and getting out of the poses are clearly written, and I like the added things to think about while doing some poses. As an instructor, I've used several things from this book.
