Yoga for Kids: Top 5 Yoga Studios in Sydney

The benefits of yoga for kids is basically a never-ending list. After all, how can such a calm, mindful and peaceful practice be anything but beneficial for our little ones? Yoga for kids helps with physical development such as balance, muscle tone, core strength, posture and mobility, as well as nurturing mental health through creating a positive body image, calming the nervous system and allowing children to take part in physical activity in a non-competitive environment.

Sydney is home to some great yoga for kids that cater to little yogis as well as adults. Here are the top 5 spots for kids yoga in Sydney.

1. Little Yogi Miranda

 

At Little Yogi, the kid's yoga classes are designed to introduce children to a long-lasting yoga practise that is physically challenging, great for establishing healthy mindfulness practises and plenty of fun along the way. Each kids yoga class focuses on a specific theme that keeps the children engaged and enthusiastic about practising yoga, and poses are taught in an age-appropriate way and are further developed as children gain more confidence and understanding. These school-term classes are run on Wednesdays from 4.30 to 5.30 pm at Miranda Youth Centre.
