What ages can participate in a Conscious Kids Yoga class?

Classes can be tailored to students as young as 2.5 to 18 years old! No matter the age group, yoga will be taught in a developmentally appropriate and engaging way.

Is there any special equipment needed for class?

Our services come with supplies! All we need is a space to comfortably accommodate students. We will supply yoga mats and other materials we might want to use in class (i.e. singing bowl, bluetooth speaker, stickers for participation, etc.)

How do you ensure the safety and well-being of children in your classes?

Our organization adheres to school district assurances for providing an out-of-school-time service. Yoga instructors will complete school district background check, fingerprinting and CPR/First Aid requirements.

Our instructors will aim to create an engaging, inclusive curriculum that supports a diversity of students and expression. Our approach also includes maintaining clear safety guidelines with students to minimize risk of injury.
