reprinted from The Fine Art of Teaching Yoga to Children by Pamela Hollander, M.A.
"In teaching yoga to children, we have the opportunity to share our knowledge of good health on every level. This gives them tools to increase their awareness and sensitivity, in turn developing their intellect and willpower. Teaching children respect for their bodies through the cleansing practice of yoga, we teach children how to stay receptive to the lessons of life." |
