Khela is the Sanskrit word for play.
Help introduce your child to the wonders of the yoga experience through this program created by Lyric's founder, Sharon Discorfano. In these classes, children will tap into their imaginations and the creative spirit within them. Together, the children will be inspired by music, games, and the images of flowers and animals – moving, playing, laughing, and learning. Storytelling and talking circles help children develop their listening and communication skills. Also, each class concludes with “quiet time” that helps children learn how to relax and be still – an invaluable lesson for them, as they learn how to live in a world that is constantly moving and demanding us to keep up the pace. Yoga can be especially beneficial for those children having attention deficit issues.
The benefits of yoga at an early age are clear:
- Awareness of their own bodies
- An early appreciation for well-being
- Development of strength and flexibility
- Development of coordination
- Increased self-discipline and focus
- Learning and playing with others
- Increased self-esteem in a non-competitive environment
- Fostering creativity
- Fun! Fun! Fun!
The Khela Kids™ Difference
The Khela Kids™ program features a curriculum based on "core values" that are inspired by basic yogic philosophy as well as guidelines from the U.S. Department of Education. Each class highlights one of these values, often as the focus during a talking circle or story shared with the class.
Khela Kids™ 10 Core Values
Honesty and Fairness
Self-respect and Respect for Others
Self-Discipline
Courage
Responsibility and Service to Others
Using Good Judgment
Gratitude
Kindness and Compassion
Generosity/Sharing
Peace
We currently offer KidsYoga at schools in the Greater Tucson area and arrange for groups to have a class event onsite at the yoga studio per request.
If you are a school administrator and would like to offer yoga at your school, or if you would like to set up a class at the studio, please call us at 520-219-2691.
Note to Parents for classes held at our studio: We generally ask that parents stay outside of the practice area during the kids classes. We ask that for Kids 3-5, parents stay within "hugging distance." However, we also encourage you to breathe and move with your children.
*All Kids Yoga instructors for Lyric are required to have a Fingerprint Clearance Card.
For upcoming session: You can pre-register by either emailing us at info@lyricyoga.com or calling the studio and leaving us a message, including your name and contact information (520-219-2691). Thank you!
