Yoga was developed over 5000 years ago as a way to ease ailments of the body but most importantly as a path to still the mind and gain clarity. Since it was introduced to the West a little over 60 years ago its popularity has grown exponentially.
In India, the birthplace of yoga, children have always been exposed to yoga from at a very young age. We believe that the earlier children are exposed to the the powerful concepts of yoga, the better equipped the child will be to enjoy a happy and fulfilled life.
