" I love the Summer Yoga in 10 Minutes a Day packet. There are so many great ideas and activities! I recently printed out several copies of the affirmation cards found on 2 of the pages in this package and incorporated them into my classes. At the beginning of class I will talk about how the words we speak to ourselves are very powerful and how important it is to speak to yourself with love and kindness. Then I read aloud the different affirmations and asked them to pick the one they feel like they need the most in their lives at that moment. They place their cards at the top of their yoga mat and throughout our class, I remind them to glance down at their cards and say the words to themselves. After Savasana, I turn on calm music and give them time to color in their affirmation cards. I also encourage them to put the cards somewhere they will see often. The kids absolutely love it and always ask when we can do it again!" - Amy Foster, Kids Yoga Stories Ambassador

I’m new to yoga and/or to bringing yoga to children. Is this for me?  

Absolutely. You don’t have to be a flexible yogi or even have any yoga experience to bring yoga to children. The resources in this bundle come with detailed instructions and teaching tips so you will have the confidence to instruct your children into the poses and exercises. All you need is curiosity and the willingness to learn— great traits to role model for your children. ;)

What’s the parent/teacher’s role when using this bundle? Do I need to model the poses myself?  

You don’t need to demonstrate the poses if you’re not comfortable doing so or are unable to do so. The resources are designed as a wonderful visual tool and can be used, along with the written description, to effectively provide instruction to your children. You can print off the poses and share them as hand-outs or simply use your computer, tablet, or projector screen to share the images.
