How can children benefit from Yoga?
Children’s yoga is a fun way to build strength, flexibility, balance and coordination, while helping children become more aware of their bodies and how they move.
Yoga can also support focus and concentration, confidence and emotional regulation. Through movement, breathing and relaxation, children can learn simple ways to recognise how they are feeling and help their bodies settle when they need to.
How can children with Special Educational Needs benefit from Yoga?
Yoga can be particularly beneficial for children with special educational needs, offering a calm, supportive and non-competitive way to explore movement and develop body awareness.
Through yoga poses, movement, breathing and sensory activities, children can work on balance, coordination, strength and focus, while also developing strategies to support emotional regulation and manage feelings of anxiety or overwhelm.
Sessions can be adapted to suit each child’s individual needs, abilities and sensory preferences, helping them feel comfortable, confident and successful. The aim is to create a positive experience where children can move, explore and develop at their own pace.
