Kids Butterfly Yoga's goal is to instill in
children and their families the importance of
physical and mental well being. In the fast
paced society we live in, it is essential that
children learn how to ground themselves. YogaKids
Teacher Trainer, Angie Continisio, founder of
Kids Butterfly Yoga is also a devoted runner
(2007 Chicago Marathon, several half marathons
and 10K races). Apart from her studio, she also
teaches off site at local daycares, elementary
schools, day camps, private homes and community
centers.
As a mother of two hockey and soccer playing
boys, and a CanFit-Pro certified Health &
Wellness Specialist; she believes that teaching
children the importance of fuelling their bodies
and getting in touch with their minds are important
elements to carry forward with them in life.
Children absorb and process information differently
through movement, seeing, listening, touching,
singing and reading. The YogaKids method educates
the whole child with an integrative approach
that addresses their brain, intellect, body
and spirit in a seamless fashion.
Teaching young children yoga reaps a
host of benefits such as:
- Safely and effectively improve strength
and flexibility
- Develop strong, limber and healthy bodies
- Improve coordination and posture
- Learn to relax – open up to a peaceful
state of mind and body
- Express creativity and imagination
- Increase body awareness – learn basics
of anatomy and health
- Improve concentration, attention and focus
