Children's yoga helps makes them feel good, which also increases their confidence and breathing exercises in kids yoga helps calm and center them. Kids yoga builds positive peer and social Interactions as they learn that poses look different from person to person, child or adult and in that way they respect differences. Yoga can also help kids to be creative and express themselves.
