Yoga and kids

Sadly, my Yoga/Pilates class has just finished for the year and won’t start back until January. I’m really going to miss the class, it was the only time throughout the week I was able to switch off and completely chill. What with the festive season approaching, all that extra food and alcohol, I was concerned my body would not survive the next few weeks. So I enlisted the company of my 11 year old daughter as a class mate and set up yoga class in the front room. After a few positions forcing us into fits of giggles we relaxed and had a really great time. I think there should be more mum and daughter yoga classes available or even family yoga on a Saturday.
After doing a bit of research on the internet I realised how beneficial yoga is for kids.
My new children’s book characters the Little Humbugs even do yoga. www.littlehumbugs.com

Tanya the Butterfly Girl loves Yoga.
I love this! I’ve stumbled across your blog and hope you don’t mind me using this picture for a personal post on my own blog (with credit to you, of course) - her picture sums up everything perfectly! I hope you’ll read it and agree.
It’s a real thrill to learn about you and the Butterfly Girls - can we get your books here in the States?
Many thanks and peace,
~Andrea
