Mind and body are one.
Yoga addresses the person as a whole.
Yoga develops both mental and physical flexibility.
Yoga helps young people balance their emotions, relax their minds and strengthen their concentration.
Yoga has been a part of my life for many years.
I am a Registered Early Childhood Educator with over twenty-two years of teaching experience. I have taught yoga poses, breathing and relaxation exercises to children for the past three years.
I am often amazed how at the end of one of my yoga classes, after our 'cool down', while the children lie still on their mats, I have to encourage them to 'come back' from their restful state, sit up and end our class.
