Special thanks to Hedwig, my trusty toy owl! 🦉 The kids loved it!

I'm thrilled to do weekly yoga sessions with these little souls. 🧘‍♂️💕

🦉🌈 Wings of Wellness: Nurturing Young Minds with Wise Owl Kid's Yoga 🌈🦉

Hello, mindful families! 🌟 Today, let's celebrate the incredible journey of yoga for kids, wrapped in the enchanting embrace of owl wisdom – the heart of Wise Owl Kid's Yoga. 🦉✨

🧘‍♀️ Mental Clarity, Owl-style
Just like owls navigate the night with clarity, yoga helps kids find mental clarity in their busy lives, nurturing their minds through the practices we embrace at Wise Owl Kid's Yoga.

🌱 Growing Strong and Resilient
Owls inspire us with their adaptability, just as we encourage kids to grow strong and resilient through Wise Owl Kid's Yoga. As they stretch and bend, their bodies flourish, mirroring the adaptability of our feathered friends.

🌼 Feeling Flutter of Emotions
Owls are attuned to their surroundings, and at Wise Owl Kid's Yoga, we teach kids to connect with their emotions. Through our yoga practices, children develop emotional intelligence and discover positive ways to express their feelings.

💤 Dreamland Serenity
Much like owls enjoying peaceful sleep, Wise Owl Kid's Yoga prepares kids for restful slumber. Our relaxation techniques guide kids toward bedtime tranquility, making sleep a serene journey to dreamland.

🦉 Confidence Soars High
Owls embody wisdom and confidence, values that Wise Owl Kid's Yoga strives to impart. As kids master poses and mindfulness, their self-assurance takes flight, helping them tackle challenges with grace and self-belief.

🌈 Unified Mind-Body Harmony
Balancing mind and body, just like owls balance in flight, is the essence of Wise Owl Kid's Yoga. Each pose nurtures mental focus and physical well-being, harmonizing their growth.

🍃 Nature's Tranquility
Owls remind us of the serenity of nature, and at Wise Owl Kid's Yoga, we foster that connection. Practicing yoga outdoors, just like owls in their natural habitat, deepens kids' appreciation for the world around them.

So, let's celebrate the incredible benefits of yoga for kids, unfolding wings of mental and physical wellness with the grace and wisdom of Wise Owl Kid's Yoga. 🌼🌟

It's week 2! 🦉🌈🧘‍♀️🧘

🤔Our lesson today began with a discussion about the power of our thoughts and how they create our feelings. Positive thoughts create confidence and happiness, and negative thoughts create anger and unhappiness.

🦋After some invigorating standing warmups, the Wise Owlets focused on deep breathing in sleeping butterfly pose. They breathed in many different positive thoughts and breathed out all the negative thoughts.

🧘‍♂️The Yoga talk section continued the theme of the power of our thoughts. Did you know we have 60 000 thoughts per day?
90% of our thoughts are the same as the day before! The Wise Owlets learnt the difference between helpful and unhelpful thinking.

🤸‍♀️During the main section, the Wise Owlets harnessed the power of helpful positive thoughts to work on balancing poses and cardio poses to get the heart racing, just like training to be an elite athlete! The highlight was working with a partner in boat pose, which took cooperation and coordination! Our focus pose for the week is down dog.

😴The Wise Owlets were well and truly ready for their full body deep relaxation meditation to their special place in their imagination.

💜To finish the session in a positive mindset, they told the class something they were good at and chose a gratitude card with a special message just for them.

🌈It's not too late to join us for Term 3 (8 weeks left) $88 normally $110
🌈Casual classes are offered if you don't want to come every week $12 per class normally $15

🦉 Term 3 Programme has begun! 🦉

A message from "Hedwig" owl started a discussion about what it means to have healthy digestion (a happy tummy) and a healthy head (our thoughts being clear and healthy).

🦋Next was an energetic warmup session followed by a relaxing breathing exercise in sleeping butterfly pose. The Wise Owlets were so calm that a little wooden "butterfly" landed on their shoulders to rest!

🧘‍♀️In the Yoga talk section, they became aware of their own mind and how it is the think tank for the body where they make healthy choices and decisions for themselves. The Wise Owlets chose a gratitude affirmation card and we discussed the meaning of each one. These were - start each day with a positive mindset, I respect myself and others, strive for progress not perfection and I am grateful for my family.

🦎For the main section they were led on an imaginary journey through the jungle, focusing on our feature pose- gecko pose.

🌅For deep relaxation, the Wise Owlets were guided on a meditation to a special and safe place, created just for them.

📝To conclude the lesson, they listened to a short, guided visualisation and then opened their eyes and drew what they saw in their mind. They compared the drawings to see how different everyone's mind was!

🌈It's not too late to join us for Term 3 (9 weeks left) $88 normally $110

A beautiful group of Wise Owlets came to find their Zen at the Wise Owl Kid's Yoga Holiday Workshop. "Hedwig" made a special appearance with a welcome message and some questions to foster a discussion about the origins of Yoga.

The Wise Owlets were led through a stretchy warmup followed by a relaxing belly breathing exercise to activate the parasympathetic nervous system in times of stress.

In the main section, the Wise Owlets were led on an imaginary visit to the desert to balance the heart meridian through specific Yoga Therapy movements.

For relaxation, they learnt how to systematically tense and relax every part of the body to come into a deep state of relaxation and calm.

To finish the Workshop, the Wise Owlets created a power rock to remind them to come back to an emotion they want to experience more. They also found a secret affirmation card hiding under their yoga mat with a special message just for them.

As they floated out the door of our beautiful venue, they collected a rose quartz crystal to have as a keepsake of their special time unplugging and resetting.

Thank you to all the Wise Owlets whoooooo attended!

It's school holidays and time for children and teens to "unplug."

Wise Owl Kid's Yoga is running a holiday workshop to help children and teens "unplug" from the world and gain tools to thrive during the busy times.

For regular weekly "unplugging" Wise Owl Kid's Yoga will be running a Term 3 programme.

For more details please check out these events on the Wise Owl Kid's Yoga page.

Bookings are essential as places are limited.🦉🌈🧘‍♀️

"Nothing's working." said Rabbit.
"Have you tried unplugging?" asked Bear.
"I don't plug in anywhere." said Rabbit.
"Yes you do." said Bear. "You're plugged into the world around you."
"Oh." said Rabbit, giving this some thought. "How do I unplug then?"
"Close your eyes, let your muscles relax and listen only to the sound of yourself breathing in and out." said Bear. "After a while, when you feel ready, plug back in, and try again."

Wise Owl Kid's Yoga wishes everyone happy World Yoga Day! 🦉🌈🧘‍♀️
International Yoga Day is observed on June 21 every year.

It is celebrated to spread awareness of the benefits of the ancient Indian practice all around the world.

This year, the theme is "One Earth, One Family, One Future."

In 2015, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi came up with the idea of recognising Yoga on an international stage by honouring June 21 as Yoga Day. In the Northern Hemisphere, June 21 is the longest day of the year and the day of the Summer Solstice.

"Yoga is the symbol of universal aspiration for health and well-being. It is health assurance on zero budget." PM Narendra Modi

"Yoga teaches us to cure what need not be endured and endure what cannot be cured." BKS Iyengar

Have you heard of Yoga Therapy for children and teens?

At Wise Owl Kid's Yoga, specific Yoga Therapy exercises are incorporated into every lesson.

So, what is Yoga Therapy?

At Wise Owl Kid's Yoga we teach Meridian Based Yoga Therapy. It is a traditional medical system based on bringing the body back to balance through the use of targeted therapy movements and focused breathing. Our bodies are full of energy meridians and when these meridians are out of balance, we can become overly emotional, physically sick or experience pain. Think of Meridian Based Yoga Therapy as similar to acupuncture, but instead of needles, corrective exercises and focused breathing is used.

Meridian Based Yoga Therapy can benefit children and teens with:

🦉ADHD/ADD
🦉Anxiety
🦉Asthma
🦉Aspergers
🦉Autism
🦉Coughs, colds, sore throats
🦉Depression
🦉Diabetes
🦉Digestion issues
🦉Down's Syndrome
🦉Focus and attention problems
🦉Menstruation issues
🦉Physical disabilities
🦉Sore backs
🦉Trauma
🦉Weight management
