Rainbow Yogis Information

The core of our kid's and teen's yoga is a philosophy of mindfulness and empowerment that we teach through the eight limbs of yoga. Compassion, Respect, Balance, Focus, Inner Growth, Awareness, Understanding and Self Love. The word YOGA means “union” and it is important that we start to recognise ourselves not just as a sum of parts, an arm or a leg, a body or a mind, but as one holistic being. A beautiful, magic spark on the earth. A miracle! We believe that children are disconnected with themselves and with the world around them. We live in a highly complex world, both natural and of our making, yet so few of us really take the time to see how it actually works and how our individual actions effect it. With computer screens, games, media and television we are disconnecting ourselves from each other and our natural world. A regular yoga practice the kids and teens, teaches mindfulness during the important formative years. As our young ones are finding their way in the world, physically, mentally and socially, yoga can give kids and teens the perspective they need to see things clearly and avoid unnecessary stress. For younger children, yoga is excellent for balancing their energy. Whether it's helping to manage those crazy bursts or bringing them out of their shells. It's healthy and non-competitive, so everyone benefits and everyone can feel proud of their achievements. For teens, it gives them the mental break they need to relax from busy High School schedules, as they push themselves harder with late nights and study. Yoga will also help boost core strength, balances muscle groups and aid flexibility, great for increasing potential in sports. We feel passionate about the gift of mindfulness as a tool to empowerment, helping plant the seeds to grow a conscious generation. Yoga and meditation can help a child feel safe, secure and content while also being a great way to discover and nurture the union they have with themselves and the world around them.
