YOGA FOR
TOTS to TEENS
Life is to short not to be WiLD!
During our Wild Child Yoga classes for Tweenies & Tweens & Teens we foster an environment where each person is encouraged to be their true awesome self & create a welcoming, safe environment where every one feels like they belong. We use yoga as a tool to teach principles like gratitude, contentment, non attachment, self -love, self-belief, & respect.
The intention of these classes is to encourage children to learn to be their true awesome selves on & off the mat.
Wild Child & Co is all about helping people remember & connect to their true awesome selves including the Children in our community from Tots through to Teens.
Having good Mental Health requires the same practice as good Physical Health. These sessions can be seen as a way to maintain good Mental Health or as a stand alone or adjunctive Therapy to support your child regain good Mental Health.
We offer small group sessions of 6/8 Children. Our programs are designed to focus on both the physical, mental & emotional benefits of Yoga so include practicing the physical forms of Yoga as well as Mindfulness & Meditation techniques.

Program Outline
Here is a little idea of what you can expect from our programs.
1. GROUND
All sessions begin with some with time to GROUND. It’s important to take some time to create a moment of separation from the days events. This may mean an open forum conversation, a meditation, or some journaling.
2. BREATHE
We learn how we can use the BREATH as a tool. Breath Work or Pranayama is a great tool for kids to learn….
If however breath work increases your child’s anxiety other methods will be taught instead. It’s important to know that not all methods work for everyone & children are always invite to try new tools & choose the ones that work for them.
3. RELEASE
RELEASE is all about the physical aspect of the practice we do a variety of Yin & Yang Yoga forms during these sessions. We may also use myo-fascial release & or acupressure points during certain programs.
4. RESET
Before we finish we take time to RESET.
We may learn a Mudra, sit in meditation, journal or have a sharing circle to complete the session.
5. REST
Finally it’s time to REST - this is a time in the day to just be. A few moments to lay do nothing to be still & silent.
This can be challenging for some at first but soon becomes the favourite part of the practice for many as they learn to remember how good a little rest really feels !
