Grade 6 and 7 students in Ms. O'Neill's class were doing yoga in a recent Gym Class. Why is Yoga great for kids? - It has positive effects with mental, physical and emotional benefits.
- It teaches kids focus and self-regulation which can translate to all aspects including school work, coping, and calming.
- It gets the body moving, is non competitive and inexpensive to do.
- It builds strength and teaches patience.
- It is great for combatting and decreasing stress.
- It's fun!
