Kateryna Didenko is the author of yoga lessons for kindergartens and elementary schools, as well as a yoga course for educators, teachers, and parents who want to use yoga in their lessons, breaks, and free time.
You can order the creation of a children’s yoga program personally for your kindergarten, school or class.
There is also an opportunity to take a course for teachers and educators on the application of techniques and methods of children’s yoga and humane pedagogy in any lesson (music, acting, dance, in any school subject and breaks, classroom hours, extracurricular trips and extracurricular programs).
I am also open to participating in Festivals and helping you organize your programs for children using art therapy and the direction of“mindfulness”.
The main PURPOSE of yoga for daycare and kindergarten is to promote physical activity, mindfulness and self-awareness through playful and age-appropriate movements and exercises.
It helps children to develop body awareness, concentration and relaxation skills, while fostering a positive and healthy attitude towards physical exercise.
Why do children NEED yoga from a daycare' age?
Physical health
Introducing children to yoga from an early age helps develop their physical fitness and flexibility.
It can prevent postural problems and promote a healthy, active lifestyle, which is crucial in our age of technology and screen time.
Emotional Health
Yoga teaches children valuable tools for stress and emotion management.
It provides them with a safe space for self-expression, developing emotional resilience and self-regulation skills that will serve them throughout their lives.
Concentration and focus
Regular yoga practice improves a child's ability to concentrate and stay focused.
This skill is valuable not only in studies but also in everyday life as it can improve the ability to listen, learn and complete tasks more effectively.
Self-confidence
Yoga contributes to self-awareness and self-acceptance.
By mastering the asanas and overcoming challenges, children can increase their self-confidence and develop a positive body image, which will lead to increased self-esteem.
Community and social skills
Participating in a yoga class with your peers fosters a sense of community and belonging.
It encourages teamwork, cooperation and empathy as children interact and support each other in practice, improving their social and relationship skills.
