There are so many benefits to children and their families…when children do yoga. That’s why we at Dream are doing all we can to offer classes and programs for children of all ages, abilities and needs. Our specially trained children's yoga instructors LOVE sharing yoga with kids, tweens, teens and families!
Dream's kids and family yoga teachers have many years' experience working with children. Several hold degrees in psychology/child psychology, and have trained and been certified by nationally recognized programs including Kripalu's Yoga in the Schools and Radiant Child.
Please consider signing up your child or grandchildren--and yourself!--for these special classes designed to meet the unique needs of growing kids and families. Also, please help other children in your life—those of your friends, of parents at work, and those in your extended family or neighborhood---know of the opportunity to participate in Dream Yoga classes. It "takes a village" to create healthy kids and families!
In addition to the group classes at our Studio, Dream Yoga also offers private yoga classes; yoga at schools and early childhood childhood centers; yoga parties; yoga for Girl and Boy Scouts; and Therapeutic Yoga for special needs children.
