In these classes, we will practice breathing techniques (pranayama), yoga postures (asana), and more to help participants connect with their bodies, minds, and spirits. This focus invites kids to recognize the ability to act and behave mindfully with compassion, to be brave, to know happiness, and to find inner peace and calm. While yoga helps build strength and flexibility, it also helps develop techniques for handling stress. Dress comfortably, and bring water and a mat if you have one. For ages 5 -11. Registration is required for each child. Caregivers may attend with children, but do not need to register.  Classes are provided by Lindsey Haantrella at Haantrella Healing . https://charltonlibrary.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/kids-yoga-with-lindsey-5/
