ABOUT CHILDREN'S YOGA
Our yoga classes are fun and inspiring and are taught by Lizzie, mum to two daughters, an experienced primary school teacher and a certified Cosmic Kids yoga teacher. Yoga is taught through adventure stories which enable children to move their bodies and explore feelings and emotions in a safe space.
Each week our yoga story explores a theme or emotion, some recent examples include: coping with change, overcoming fears, handling disappointment, the importance of friendship and celebrating differences.
After the yoga story the children complete a craft or mindfulness activity which is linked to the story. The children have recently enjoyed making breathing sticks, dream catchers and scratch art.

OUR TEACHER
Lizzie is our yoga teacher. She is mum to two daughters: Olivia (9) and Harriet (7) and has been a primary school teacher for over 14 years. Lizzie absolutely loves yoga and the many benefits that it brings. She has been practising yoga regularly since 2010.
During ‘lockdown’ Lizzie and her daughters really enjoyed practising yoga together. They found that yoga really helped to build their physical strength and flexibility, it also helped calmed their minds during a very stressful and unpredictable time.
Lizzie and her daughters continue to practise yoga regularly and enjoy the many wonderful benefits that a regular yoga practice brings.
