(Learn the benefits of Full Certification here.) The YogaKids program is more than just poses. Because it blends traditional yoga with education, it creates something new. A comprehensive, imaginative, and playful way to learn. Developed by our founder, yoga pioneer-educator-author Marsha Wenig, YogaKids has been helping children for over 25 years.
