    I am so grateful for the presence of Yoga Playgrounds at my preschool! Aside from yoga poses, we learn breath work, connecting with our emotions, practical ideas for when we get upset, have to wait, feel frustrated, etc. as well as meditation, relaxation, and being mindful of ourselves, our classmates, and the world around us.

    Yoga Playgrounds has been a wonderful program for our preschool. I appreciate the self-awareness and regulations skills that I’ve seen children bring back to the classroom based on their yoga experiences. Would highly recommend Yoga Playgrounds!

    Sandy Hodge / Hancock Street Preschool

    These classes have been amazing for our daughter throughout her elementary school years. I know these tools she’s learned with Yoga Playgrounds are going to stick with her as she heads into middle school. Thank you!

    Yoga and mindfulness are powerful tools for kids, helping them navigate their emotions, build focus, and grow confidence. Through playful poses and calming breathing exercises, kids learn emotional regulation, giving them strategies to handle big feelings with ease. Mindfulness activities teach kids to focus on the present moment, improving attention and reducing stress and anxiety.
