An Awesome Find

Written for teachers, librarians and yoga instructors, author/yoga instructor Sydney Solis details how yoga is beneficial for young children and how incorporating this ancient spiritual practice into storytelling can help to achieve a deeper level of understanding. The book gives excellent concrete examples of how to deal with real situations that might arise with children including how to maintain control of the class and how to set rules. A class curriculum is outlined including folk tales, their theme, country of origin along with corresponding yoga poses for each character or action. A chapter with black and white photographs and detailed explanations of how to do the various poses is also included.

This book is wonderful!

If you teach children's yoga or want to begin yoga with your children at home then this book is the one to buy. I have structured my class using the recommendations that Sydney Solis gives in the book with warmups and centerings, etc... I have also used all the stories in the book and have went on to use other stories and folk tales I personally enjoy incorporating yoga as I tell the story. My yoga students and my own children thoroughly enjoy each class I teach and I appreciate Storytime Yoga in helping me get started.

WONDERFUL TEACHING TOOL

If you teach yoga to children this book is a great tool for you to have. I got alot of ideas from reading this book. I have been teaching children yoga for about 2 years and was running out of new fun ways to keep the children excited about coming to class. Or maybe I was not getting excited about the classes anymore, this gave the children and myself new excitment exploring yoga through story.

Best Children's Yoga book

I teach yoga to children and have found this book to be the most informative and full of the most creative ideas. Highly recommended.

Highly Recommended

There are more and more yoga books for children being produced now...which is great ( I have many of them). I recently purchased this book and must say that this book is special. It gives great ideas for story telling, meditations, breathing techniques, songs, asanas, warm ups and games, as well as including several stories you can also tell. I also liked that fact that it gives tips on how to teach yoga philisophies simply to children (love, peace, patience, respect, kindness, etc). This is a truly great book! Highly recommended if you want to teach yoga to children and stay true to the purpose of yoga!
