This mindset is about inspiring people of all ages and abilities to use the practice of yoga for a purpose: to feel more alive, positive, and vibrant leading to healthier and happier lives.
Yoga Rocks Kids™ is an inspirational and educational yoga program for kids of all ages and abilities. The mission of Yoga Rocks Kids™ is to educate and empower kids with effective skills and techniques that lead them to productive, positive, and peaceful futures.
The Yoga Rocks Kids™ Program integrates scientific principles and yoga techniques to counteract the various stressors that interfere with optimal learning and success in school and in life.
It is designed to elicit specific neurological and emotional responses including improved concentration and focus, enhanced creativity, increased confidence, and reduced anxiety in children and teens of all abilities. It encourages and teaches kids to be productive, positive, and peaceful in their daily lives.
The program consists of 50 Core Movements and various sequences and lesson plans to develop physical and mental strength, enhance the brain, build a positive attitude and a calm mind, and increase self-esteem. The focus of the program is The Yoga Method™, a series of steps carried out to attain a goal, which is based on the Scientific Method used in science classes for problem solving.
This simple and effective, age-appropriate program provides immediate results and is designed to be used in and out of the classroom. Kids can use the program before or after school. Teachers can incorporate the program as part of the classroom experience creating a productive, positive, and peaceful learning environment.
The Yoga Method™ teaches important learning skills such as problem solving, critical thinking, observation, experimentation, and reflection. This age-appropriate method incorporates the use of specific sequences that achieve a desired outcome. Students will incorporate the use of a journal (the Yoga Rocks Journal™) to record their goals, observations, results, and reflections about their yoga experience.
The Yoga Rocks Kids™ Teacher Training Program trains parents, educators, scout leaders, therapists, and anyone who works with kids to use The Yoga Method™ to enhance the quality and learning environment of the classroom as well as at home. We also offer school programs that can be tailored to your organization's individual needs.
Yoga Rocks™ LLC is continually developing products and services to spread the Yoga Rocks™ vision of empowering children and adults to lead productive, positive, and peaceful lives. The Yoga Rocks Journal™ for kids and The Yoga Rocks Kids Sequence Books™ are designed to be used with the program and are available though the Yoga Rocks™ website at www.yogarocks.us.
