Our experience with children’s yoga at Montessori is that the
children just adore their Yoga classes. The Yoga routine is a very
enjoyable child’s version of adult Yoga. The children are taught
fun Yoga poses as well as the discipline of focusing on their body
and their breathing.
I love teaching Yoga to the children
at Montessori. Yoga has been my
passion for the past 17 years.
During that time I have been very
fortunate to have been able to share
my knowledge of yoga with select
groups of children. I have my kids’
yoga teacher training certification
through LITTLE LOTUS Yoga and
am certified to teach children up to
8 years of age. As a mother of 3
boys I know how important the early
years are for children’s
development.
In my yoga classes the principal I
follow is consistency. I begin and
end each lesson with a ritual. It
allows for a structured environment
where there is a dependable routine.
Most important, I believe that the
children need to be praised for selfimprovement not just perfection.
Looking forward to teaching your
children,
Veronique Abecassis
Parents are invited to come and watch their child during the final
yoga class on Monday, June 15.
Why children should do yoga:
*To promote self-discipline
*To exercise body and help physical coordination, to develop body awareness
*To help right/left brain coordination
*To help children be aware of themselves from the inside (both physically and emotionally)
*To increase self-confidence and develop self-esteem
*To encourage awareness of spirit
*To have fun (very important from child's viewpoint!)
