Children and adolescents can benefit from the movement and breath practices of yoga, but often need this practice presented in a way that is fun and engaging.
 
In this four-week series, we will use our yogi imaginations to journey to faraway places, go on amazing adventures, and play fun games -- while learning yoga poses and noticing what is happening with our breath, our bodies, and our thoughts.
 
We will practice moving, being still, and most of all -- we will have fun!
 
Ages 5-12. All mats and yoga accessories provided.
