Our Experience
While I was aware that Yoga helps in building concentration, confidence, and respect for your body, I was not aware of just how beneficial Yoga can really be for children, I am now though! Over the past few weeks my kiddo's have been enjoying a new daily routine, that they've grown quiet fond of.  Yoga By The Dozen! While the princess was slightly familiar with Yoga, our son had not shown any interest. That was until we introduced him to Yoga By The Dozen. The calm voice of the instructor coupled with the fun relatable way she teaches the children on the DVD, instantly sparked interest from both of my children.

They happily pull out their Yoga mats daily now, and partake in this fun Yoga routine! By teaching them that they are really in complete control of their movements and their breathing they have both been much calmer! When the princess (4) goes into meltdown mode now, I quickly remind her to breathe, which (to my surprise!) now helps her to calm herself down and redirect her energy into talking through an issue (fairly remarkable in my opinion, for 4 years old!).

They have both learned a bunch from Yoga By The Dozen, and have had TONS OF FUN doing so!
