Cats And Cows Yoga Club, Kate Gaulke

Honors Expanded Learning Clubs

Numerous studies have shown that yoga can be very beneficial for kids. Cats and Cows Yoga Club will help children learn the postures of yoga, but also teach them the importance of mindfulness. I include lessons that preach kindness and gratefulness which compliments the practice of yoga very well. Ultimately, children will become aware of how it feels when they deep breathe and the difference it makes in your mood when you focus on mindfulness in your body, mind, and spirit.
