Introducing a child to yoga is like sowing a seed that can sprout at a later stage. It forms the foundation for healthy and holistic development of the child. Especially in today’s context, we cannot over-emphasize the need to bring yoga to children in a way that they can enjoy and benefit from.
In the tradition of Sri Krishnamacharya, the approach to teaching children and young adults is referred to as ‘Srsti krama’ and ‘Sakti krama’, respectively. The workshop will lay the foundation for this approach.
You will learn to:
- Customise asana practice for children and young adults
- Use tools and techniques to make the asana practices interesting and beneficial for children
- Design practices to improve flexibility, strength, confidence, and emotional resilience through yoga
