Questions that I often received from parents or those who first heard “kids yoga” are “Why kids need to learn yoga?”; “What benefits kids gain by practicing yoga?” ; “Is Yoga a religion?” and etc. Undeniably, kids yoga apparently still represents a very new concept to parents, schools and public in Malaysia. Furthermore, common misconceptions that public always have towards kids yoga are they perceive kids yoga either purely “physical” exercise where kids have to perform or achieve “difficult” and “advance” poses which sometimes is quite terrifying or they think kids yoga is another time for kids just come to “play” and “sweat” which kids can gain the same benefits as well when they are doing any other “physical exercises”. Yoga for kids is a fun way for children to develop important skills in a fun, non-competitive environment. Even at a young age, children often feel pressure at school academically and socially, plus the added pressure of competitive organized sports. It is easy for girls and boys to become overly self-critical, and lose confidence in themselves as they grow and change.
