Overall, pre-teen and teen yoga is a unique and valuable experience

Helping with physical, emotional, and social development.

Physical development:

• Pre-teens and teens are still developing physically, so their yoga practice needs to be adapted to their unique needs. This means focusing on poses that promote flexibility, strength, and balance, while avoiding poses that could put stress on their joints or muscles.

Emotional development:

• Pre-teens and teens are also experiencing significant emotional changes, so yoga can be a helpful way for them to manage stress, anxiety, and other emotions. Yoga poses that promote relaxation and mindfulness can be particularly beneficial for this age group.

Social development:

• Pre-teens and teens are also starting to develop their own social identities, so yoga can be a great way for them to connect with others and build community. Yoga classes for pre-teens and teens often include social activities, such as group discussions and games, to help students build relationships with each other.

Time constraints:

• Pre-teens and teens often have busy schedules, so yoga classes for this age group are typically shorter than adult yoga classes. This allows students to fit yoga into their busy lives without feeling overwhelmed.
