Brighton Community Education

4-7 years

Looking for something new for your little one to try? Yoga is a great way to get your child moving. There are several benefits of children starting yoga at a young age. Yoga helps children manage their anxiety, improves emotional regulation, increases body awareness, enhances strength and flexibility and teaches children the benefits of a healthy lifestyle.

This class does require a parent to be present in case your child needs more assistance.

Meet the Instructor: Allison

" I began practicing yoga when I was in HS, and started to take it more seriously in my early 20s when I discovered hot vinyasa. After my first son was born in 2017, my husband and I moved from Chicago to Michigan. I stepped away from teaching HS Spanish, but chose to enroll in a YTT-200 program at Brighton Yoga Center and earn my yoga certification. As I deepened my own practice and began sharing it with others through teaching, I truly began to experience the profound effects of yoga. When pregnant with my second, I completed a prenatal certification and again connected to another layer of yoga while practicing during pregnancy and postpartum. In 2022, I returned to the classroom and while I have continued to teach studio yoga, i also enjoy teaching yoga and meditation to my students and staff. I truly believe that yoga is for everyone and that the practice can grow with you and help you connect to the best version of yourself."
