Yoga having a positive impact on children and staff

This autumn term as been a bit different to usual but that hasn’t stopped us delivering our key projects. This term we are delivering Yoga in several schools. In Elsworth to year 3/4, Coton to year 1 and 2, Pendragon to year 1, Fowlmere to year 5/6 and Fen Drayton to year 6. The feedback has been fantastic, and it has been having a positive impact on children and staff. It gives the children half an hour to focus on themselves, their minds and their bodies. To quote one teacher ‘the children were ready to learn after the session’. Each session consists of a warmup followed by a sequence of poses which we repeat two or three times and finishes with a meditation story and time to relax. When asking the children what they like best they nearly always reply the story at the end. In all schools the children are keen to learn and improve each week.
