What is ZenFit Kidz?

ZenFit Kidz is an 6 Week Program offered to kids in grades K-3 and 4-6 before and after school 1x per week for 1hour.   The goal is to promote, foster and educate students on the benefits of yoga and healthy living.  


(Move, Feel, and Breathe while Having Fun!)


What is Yoga?


The word Yoga means Union or Yoke.  Its Purpose is to Unite:


  • The Mind
  • The Body
  • The Spirit


Yoga is both a physical and mental practice.  We gain many health benefits from the physical practice of Yoga including Strength, Balance, and Flexibility. Through our Mental Practice and Breath work, we can be calm, slow down, be present in the moment, focus on what we are doing, and find inner peace.


Why ZenFit Kidz?


ZenFit Kidz offers children a non-competitive environment to become physically active, learn about body awareness, and build strength, balance, and flexibility. Yoga is a physical and mental practice that they can continue to do throughout their lives.   It will give them coping skills during times of stress and anxiety; build confidence in their body and whole-self, and make them feel good. 


ZenFit Kidz is a FUN way to Move, Feel, and Breathe!
