Yum Yum yoga is a yoga-inspired music, exercise and dance class for parent and child. Our classes are tailored for children from 1-5 years old.

Our philosophy is to nurture and inspire a child's natural sense of creativity and imagination.

Children are natural mimics and enjoy pretending to be different animals and objects from nature. Standing tall like a mountain, roaring loud like a lion, fluttering like a butterfly, hissing like a snake and sparkling like a star...

Children grow with the tree of Yoga both mentally and physically. Developing and improving co-ordination, balance, body awareness, concentration, mindfulness, social skills, confidence and self-esteem.

To make the class both fun and engaging we sing familiar songs, special Yum Yum songs and rhymes, dress up eg. pirates, cowboys, fairies and pixies, dance and we do arty things too!.

 

We use fun props. Bright colourful puppets, building blocks, instruments, scarves, ribbons, bubbles, balls, dressing up and a beautiful rainbow parachute.

The session also educates. Children discover numbers, letters, shapes and colours.

Parents do the poses themselves which encourages their child to join in. Some of the exercises involve holding, lifting and swinging your child.

Yum Yum Yoga creates a magical environment for you and your child to spend special quality time together in a relaxed non competitive safe environment.
