Yoga Bugs

YogaBugs has swiftly grown into one of the most recognised and highly respected children’s yoga companies in the UK. Currently over 80,000 children per week in the UK participate in YogaBugs programs.  It’s now in Australia.
The founder Fenella Lindsell has written and released the bestselling book “YogaBugs –The one Bug your kids should catch”.  She is also the BBC consultant for Waybuloo (a children’s program where the characters perform Yoga or Yogo as they call it).

Why YogaBugs?
YogaBugs is an imaginative, dynamic and fun way of bringing the benefits of yoga to children aged between 2½ and 7 years old. Traditional yoga poses, breath work and relaxation techniques are taught through exciting story adventures that capture the children’s imagination whilst enabling them to reap the benefits of practising yoga.
Children can fly on mystical birds, float on magic carpets, ride supersonic space shuttles to the moon and play football with crabs on the beach plus many more different escapades.  
Equally traditional poses can take on a new identity, as downward dog becomes a mountain, volcano or circus tent.
