Family yoga can be part of every family’s life. Family yoga can give opportunities for healthy playtime for adults and kids where everyone is on the same level (the floor). There’s lots of laughter as you roll about and try new things. The goal is fun and connection.
I was invited to speak at the Healthy Kids Virtual Summit and chose the topic of Happy Family Yoga because I’ve seen the value yoga brings to a family. It contributes to both physical and mental health. It strengthens bonds. Family yoga is an antidote to the rushing and organizing that goes on in family life.
Family yoga can be part of every kids yoga teacher training too. Being able to teach these classes will give you an edge as a yoga teacher.
If you’re a busy parent or kids yoga teacher looking for ways to integrate healthy living into family life consider bringing yoga time to your family.
In case you have any doubt about the value of family yoga, here are a few pictures from the practicum of our kids yoga teacher training. You’ll see just how much fun you can have.
