Awesome Toddler Yoga
I took my 2-year-old daughter to Yoga Playhouse in South Orange just to try it out a class and she loved it—so did I!
She had so much fun, singing, dancing, playing games and learning yoga poses. The teacher blended in a theme of appreciating all that our strong bodies do for us—breathing, walking, hugging, dancing, moving, etc. It was just the sort of message I want my daughter to grow-up with when it comes to body image. I was so glad for her to start hearing it (AND experiencing it) so early! Now we talk about her strong arms at home when she's picking up a heavy toy, etc. and it's super cute to see her show off her tree pose to her big brothers!
Anyway, I can't say enough about how much we liked the class. There's a Wed a.m. class for 2-4s at 10:30am. The owner said she's considering opening a 9:30am class for the same age group if there's enough demand. They're right next to the toy store Spark House.
