Let's Move with Kids' Holy Yoga!
Kids' Holy Yoga is part of the international ministry of Holy Yoga. A 501c3 non-profit ministry focused on the intentional practice of connecting our entire being; body, mind and spirit with God; the Father, Son and Holy Spirit through movement, breath work and meditation. Kids' Holy Yoga and Baby Holy Yoga were designed to target the very young, inspiring a desire to live healthy and whole lives through proper nutrition, physical movement and deep connection to God. We facilitate this by connecting Bible stories through yoga postures, teaching children that their bodies are a temple of the Living God, learning the fruits of the spirit of gentleness, patience, and self control through the yoga practice, worship, art, playful activities, meditation, and nutrition. Holy Yoga provides certified yoga instructor training and has more than 480 Holy Yoga instructors now teaching in 43 states. To ensure Holy Yoga is accessible to everyone nearly all of our instructors donate their time or accept donations.

This is fantastic! From a young age, children need to be nurtured physically, emotionally, and spiritually. This is what Kid's Holy Yoga provides. A program like this encourages our youth to grow up into confident, contributing members of society. Rock on and let God's love radiate out through His children of all ages!

Children of any age and stage have a great need to be loved and guided toward health and wholeness. When we teach our children in the way they should go, as they grow older, they stand firm in this way and do not depart from it. Holy Yoga Kids' rock and radiate from a firm foundation that helps to support them emotionally, spiritually, mentally, and physically, enabling them to become capable, productive, and strong in the family, home, school, community, country, and world in which they live, breathe, move, and have their being!!!

LOVE YOU RAE and love the way you move those precious kids!

I love you Dawn! I appreciate your encouragement and support. Holy Yoga has been such a gift to me in my own personal connection to God, that it is just natural that little souls have the opportunity to learn how to prayerfully move their bodies. I recently taught a 5th grade Girl Scout group yoga and I so wish when I was 10, I had someone teaching me yoga! So glad that we can now.

Thank you, Richard M., for your response. You may be happy to hear that Holy Yoga is offered currently in churches, schools, studios, or anywhere there is room to stretch out on the floor, even your living room, beach, or grassy field! If you go to www.holyyoga.net, there is a Take a Class tab where hopefully you can find a class near you to experience the health benefits for yourself.
We live in such an over-stimulating culture that the discipline of yoga provides kids the opportunity to calm their busy minds while moving their bodies. Kids' Holy Yoga classes are full of playful and prayerful movement that include art to enrich their creative spirits within and healthy nutrition to honor God with our bodies. So not only do children experience the benefits of muscle strength, flexibility, improved concentration and coordination, but also learn the tools to cope with stress and emotional problems such as this epidemic of childhood obesity.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us and taking the time in viewing the Kids' Holy Yoga video. Peace and Health-Rachel Glowacki, Kids' Holy Yoga Director
