Children love meet up in groups for fun and Yoga. Children’s Yoga has become an established movement offer at schools and playschools. But are the rigid traditional asanas from the classical Yoga really suitable for children? Do they correspond with modern scientific knowledge on the musculosceletal system of children and teenagers? In my experience, many children already suffer from a weakness of posture due to physical inactivity. Their myotonus is poorly developed which makes classical asanas a great exertion with only little benefit. Instead of insisting on static positions, Sunlight Kids Children’s Yoga focusses on fluent motion sequences.
In this colouring book, 14 drawings of cute animals and excercise descriptions suitable for children inspire little Yogis to discover traditional exercises. Body awareness and strengthening the body can be encouraged, just like curiosity for various motion sequences. The natural S-shape of the human body and its muscular framework can be activated and maintained from early ages on.
Templates for Yoga instructors –the illustrations show well known classical Yoga positions.
Yoga according to the fluent Facia Spring Method gently tones the natural S-shape of the body, activates and widens the chest, unclenches the face side of the body and strengthens the muscles of the back. All exercises are suitable for children and well tried. The drawings and descriptions provide exciting suggestions for a new approach to traditional Yoga exercises. They rouse interest in new and various motion sequences and make it fun to discover the physical awareness and strengthening.
