Building Strong Bodies and Happy Minds
Yoga is good for your body
Yoga isn't just about fancy poses - it's a journey of self-discovery and empowerment. Through playful postures and gentle breathing exercises, kids develop:
Strength and Flexibility: Yoga poses help build core strength, improve balance, and increase flexibility. This translates to better coordination in other activities and a reduced risk of injury.
Body Awareness: As kids explore different yoga poses, they gain a deeper understanding of their bodies and the amazing things they can do.
Stress Management: Deep breathing exercises are a powerful tool for managing stress and anxiety. Kids learn to calm their minds and bodies, promoting emotional well-being.
Focus and Concentration: Yoga encourages mindful movement, helping kids stay present in the moment and improve their ability to focus in school and other activities.
Yoga for every body
The beauty of yoga is its inclusivity. Kids of all ages and abilities can benefit from this practice. Many yoga programs are specifically designed for children, incorporating playful themes and age-appropriate poses to make it a fun and engaging experience.

What are people saying about Mindful Movement’s Kids Yoga?
“My girls (3 1/2 and 23 months) LOVE doing yoga. My eldest would love to come every day to work out with Maggie if she could. Some days she requests to do yoga at home just like Maggie does.”
-Sivan O.
“Charlotte loved her time in yoga with you - she now practices her tree pose every night before bed, and she’s so proud of her improving balance. Your yoga class helped her tremendously with separating from me when preschool started last year.
Thank you for your love and support of our kids - you create such a fun and safe environment for them to grow.”
-Sara Egide
“Maggie has an amazing demeanor that marries a calming nature with a wonderful sense of fun that both my kids (infant and preschooler) responded incredibly well to and just loved taking classes with her. Maggie does a great job of tailoring her classes to different ages and also gets the parents involved so we all were able to get a great yoga session in!
My preschooler loves practicing his yoga positions at home now and it has helped ‘ground him’ when he starts getting really wound up! My daughter had some mobility delays, including a tight neck and head tilt after classes with Maggie, she is back on track and flourishing.”
