Yoga at an early age encourages self-esteem and body awareness with a physical activity that’s noncompetitive. Fostering cooperation and compassion—instead of opposition—is a great gift to give our children. Yoga enhances our children’s flexibility, strength, coordination, and body awareness. In addition, their concentration and sense of calmness and relaxation improves.
