Our children are growing up in a demanding world, with busy parents and little balance between school, homework, playtime and the pressure to perform; sometimes it is easy to forget that these influences are stressful events for children, and that the bustling pace we expect our children to follow can have a profound effect on their innate joy.
Yoga helps to counterbalance these pressures. As your children learn yoga techniques for self-health, relaxation and inner fulfillment, they will also learn to apply the practice to navigating through life challenges with more ease.

YogaBalance in Luxembourg-Kirchberg is extending their exclusive kid’s yoga programme. The schedule increases to include classes for children 5-9 years now also every Tuesday from 16:30 to 17:30, and as always, on Saturdays from 14:30 to 15:30. New on the schedule are classes for Pre-Teens aged 10-14 on Saturdays from 16:00 to 17:00. A special children’s yoga Open Day will be held on Saturday 4 June 2016 from 14:00 to 17:00.

Children want to discover the world through their own eyes. Yoga is a great way for kids to increase awareness of themselves, others and the world, while having fun. Yoga practice will convey valuable lessons in positive thinking, body and mind awareness, and engage a child’s natural boundless energy. Also, practicing yoga at an early age encourages self-esteem through a physical noncompetitive activity. In the end, children will learn to foster cooperation and compassion instead of opposition. What a great gift to give them!

Yoga helps children and pre-teens become more confident, strong, balanced and healthy. There are multiple benefits from yoga practice: stillness, balance, flexibility, focus, peace, grace, connection, health and well-being.

Each class is alive with magical journeys where children meet with animals, fly an airplane or drive a car, grow into a tree or imitate the ocean waves in the form of dynamic yoga poses. As children perform the various animal and nature asana, they engage their minds to deepen their awareness.

The Kids Yoga classes are taught in English & French (German if needed) by certified Rainbow Kids Yoga Instructors.
