  Benefits of Yoga for kids 
  • Yoga is non-competitive & offers a physical activity for those kids 
    who don't like group sports
  • Yoga requires staying present
  • Yoga is practical, low cost preventative medicine
  • Yoga serves as the counter pose to the challenges of modern life
  • Yoga promotes physical, mental and emotional health
  • Yoga expands and enriches awareness and sense of self
  • Yoga brings inner harmony through experience and connection

Some of the themes in Yoga classes for kids might include: 

1) yin-yang symbol and it's application to life.. Discussion of opposite qualities, and how one is not necessarily "better" than the other. The challenge of finding the balance.  Balance between too much effort, and too little effort for example.  

2)  The value of keeping our focus on one thing at a time.What happens when you try to do too many things at once?  Such as doing Triangle pose and having a conversation? 



*** Please sign up in advance, as the class will not be held if there is insufficient numbers.

Photo of Hiyala at a daycare in Shoreveiw where she has taught French for the past 6 years.  Hiyala Indiga has been teaching  kids for more than thirty years.
She teaches French privately and has taught at Montessori schools
as well as secondary schools. She also taught at Concordia College's 
French Language Village. She has taught yoga for kids at the
Emma B Howe Ymca near Northtown as well as at Century College's summer program. From 1975-76, she worked as an aupair (nanny) while attending the American College in Paris.  Her philosophy of teaching language is to speak the language as much as possible, repeating in English whenever necessary for comprehension.  What can you expect from your child after one session?  They will know some sentences, some songs, lots of vocabulary.  However, if you ask them to "say something in French", chances are, they will freeze.  This asking presents a very unnatural situation for them - it is out of context.  In the classes French and English are combined , so it is difficult for the beginning student to isolate them.  The greatest value of learning a language at an early age is that the sounds, the "music" of the language gets into their "sponge" minds and they will be able to easily build upon that at any point in their lives.
