Wow, what another fabulous day with your kids! We truly love working with them each week, and watching their progress.
With the excitement of the christmas party still in those little bodies, we worked some movement into our yoga class, with some dancing and freezing into a yoga pose. Their spontaneity and exuberance is contagious and so much fun.
When we come back in January, we will be back to work with circuit training. I try to mix things up each time we do this, and not bore the kids with "exercise". Building a life long love of physical activity is key to a healthy body for life.
Over the break, we hope you find active things for your kids to do. A stop watch or kitchen timer can be used for circuit training at home. 30 secs each of burpees, jumping jacks, and plank position repeated a few times is a great way to add some exercise for your kids. If they get bored, add some lunges, or squats, walk around the block, or the house - just remember to move. (i have used wall-sits as a time out)
Merry Christmas.
Teachers Mary and Kellie
