What allows kids to use a lot of energy, make funny noises, relax, and learn to focus all at the same time? Yoga! While many yoga books present individual poses, this book explains how to create a flowing yoga practice that will holds kids’ interest while providing the benefits of yoga. Here is a handbook for anyone--including parents, teachers, and kids--who wants to develop a fun yoga practice. In addition, the book provides ideas for yoga games, yoga at a wall, more relaxation games, and five-minute classroom yoga.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Excellent Guide to Kids Yoga Comment: I am a hatha yoga teacher for adults, and reading this book prepared me very well to teach 5th graders. The class themes were a hit, and the kids loved learning about shapes and geometry while doing yoga. The visualization ideas are also very nice. I would highly recommend this book.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Easy to use and creative Comment: Very easy to use to create lesson plans for children's yoga programs. Give a lot of good ideas for a start to finish class.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Fun for kids with yoga Comment: This well-thought out book shows so many pictures of kids of all ethnic backgrounds having fun doing yoga that any mom would be enthralled. The pictures are fluid; the children are happy; the poses look natural. It makes you want to get on the floor and try a pose, too.
Customer Rating:      Summary: creative and new ideas Comment: Most of the yogis who attend our yoga studio have children and are always looking for ways to interest their children in yoga. While we offer Family Yoga and Kids Yoga, the demand for "more for the children"
continues. This book offers parents and yoga teachers a way to easily introduce yoga into the lives of our children, and it does so in a presentation that is at once simple, fun, and delightful! I am confident this book will be on my shelves at the studio, so that when parents clamor for more kids yoga, I can recommend this book!

Best children's yoga book on the market today. Excellent descriptions, delightful illustrations. The big secret is, it has not only made Hatha Yoga fun, joyful, interesting for children, it is an excellent resource book for parents and yoga teachers. I used some partner yoga ideas immediately in my adult classes, touching the ageless child within us all. Great job Matthew and Yael. BRAVO!
