Kids Yoga in Pittsboro
We are passionate about introducing kids to the impactful benefits of yoga & mindfulness!
Robust research underscores yoga's ability to foster mental and physical well-being in school-age children. Here is a summary of this research from Harvard Health Publishing.
In our afterschool programs and camps, your child will enjoy fun, noncompetitive physical activity and mindfulness practices designed for their age group. Our skilled instructors are warm and nurturing, ensuring your child feels supported every step of the way.
We currently offer yoga camps and classes for kids ages 4 to 12. We’d love to welcome your child into our studio family!
