2.0 out of 5 stars Too Disorganized for Me, September 30, 2008
By City Witch (New Jersey, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Angel Bear Yoga Main Lesson Book (Hardcover)
I'm not a yoga professional. In fact I know very little about yoga at all. What I am is a home schooler who is using a curriculum which recommends Angel Bear Yoga for kindergarteners. So I thought I'd give it a try.

Angel Bear is a wonderful program. I bought the dvd as well, and we adore it. I like their attitude and approach. Although I was concerned about the character building aspect, I needn't have been--its not religious. So I really like the program. However this manual is very badly put together. I tried to use it with my daughter and it was a complete flop. Everything is broken down into sections, so in order to do one lesson you have to find all the different components in all their different places, figure out what order they should go in, and all without losing the attention of a hyper 5 year old. I'm going to try prepping the lessons first, but honestly--how much work would it have been to simply leave them together? Why deconstruct a manual into useless bits?

5.0 out of 5 stars Angel Bear Yoga: an Outstanding Program., July 10, 2007
This review is from: Angel Bear Yoga Main Lesson Book (Hardcover)
Christi Eley, founder of Angel Bear Yoga, brings a multi-sensory and multi-modality approach to children's yoga. Her approach is fresh, creative and developmentally appropriate for young children. As Angel Bear and Sweet Pea gently lead the way through yoga poses, they encourage children to make connections with the natural world. Angel Bear Yoga encourages positive character traits through story, creative visualization, and poses. Angel Bear Yoga offers high quality products that are colorful and playful. Christi has succeeded in offering a parent and teacher friendly guide to children's yoga, that can make it possible to individualize instruction for every child. Angel Bear Yoga offers endless opportunities for spending quality time with your child.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sheri Grace MS. Ed., July 9, 2007
This review is from: Angel Bear Yoga Main Lesson Book (Hardcover)
Both of my sons have benefited from Angel Bear Yoga, though they were 7 and 10. This is a program that I would recommend to others, both parents and educators based on my experiences as a parent, Special Educator and Parent Educator.

Children are excited and interested in the poses and story and during this experience, the stage is well set for future discussion of values and attitudes in a way that is appropriate for young children. In addition, the program improves physical fitness and coordination and successfully provides an outlet for physical energy and movement that children need. For parents, Angel Bear Yoga provides a wonderful opportunity to share time and love with their childeren.
