Course Description

1 Clock Hour
Yoga has shown to be beneficial for children who encounter emotional, social, and physical challenges or conflicts. Children have the ability to learn how to cope with stressful situations, calm themselves in times of frustration, and learn resiliency. Yoga has many components such as balance, breathing, posing, and stamina. Teaching these skills to young children is believed to offer benefits that extend past the practice of yoga itself. 
Course Difficulty: Level 2 - This course has entry level vocabulary that most students should be able to easily become familiar with. Assignments include peer discussion boards, open-ended and multiple choice questions. ​​​​
