I truly believe that it is important to take “time out” in order to restore our energy levels.
Our lives are so busy that we actually need to stop and take the time to relax and tune into ourselves to find that inner peace.
Through proper breathing and postures, Yoga helps you tame your mind, relieve mental and physical tension and restore harmony within yourself.
The postures can increase muscle strength and stamina and help slow down the aging process and enhance feelings of joyfulness.

Yoga for kids
In our classes, children are animated and free-spirited as they make noises, act out stories, and pretend to be animals. By using nature and animal themed games, dance and song to stimulate the mind, the creative spirit and enhance health, children expand, explore and express their unique physical, emotional, mental and spiritual gifts. The children use their imagination and yoga postures to learn new vocabulary, develop motor and movement skills, and understand balance and relaxation through meditation and breath. The classes run about 20 minutes for the older groups (3-5 years old) and about 10-15 minutes for the younger children (1-2 years old).

I am an educator at the Learning Tree daycare in Dollard-des-Ormeaux and I have had the opportunity to watch our yoga teacher, Aline, work with children of varying ages. What I find most impressive about her approach is that it incorporates movement, song and educational elements so well. She keenly understands the developmental stages of the individual groups she is teaching and adapts her yoga program accordingly. She fully engages the children and makes each session tremendously fun. I would highly resommend her to anyone seeking a preschool yoga instructor.

Thanks for your positive words! My yoga breathing got me through a long labour and delivery I also kept reaffirming positive affirmations like in class.I look forward to starting yoga again but according to my doctor my original 2 wk timeframe is too ambitious. Thanks for the classes they are inspirational.
