This half-term, yoga and dance are our physical education units.
The children have made a fantastic start to yoga. We’ve learnt breathing techniques to help empty our minds and improve focus. Yoga is all about feeling relaxed and being in a calm state of mind, so we make sure our sessions are quiet and controlled.
The children have been practising yoga poses and transitioning between poses with flow and ease. Below are some examples of our learning so far.
The children have reflected on these sessions, stating they feel really calm, happy and ready for the rest of the day.
Help at home: Talk through the poses learnt with the children so far and practise them together. Make sure you have a calming environment, so that children can really empty their minds and feel peaceful and calm.
