  • Supportive Environment: Small groups offer encouragement and motivation, making it easier to develop a consistent yoga practice.

How Yoga Helps Kids + Teens

Yoga isn’t just about stretching or holding poses; it’s a helpful way for kids and teens to tackle everyday challenges. Besides making your body stronger and more flexible, yoga helps clear your mind and balance your emotions. It can reduce stress and teach you how to stay calm when things feel overwhelming. By practicing mindfulness and paying attention to your feelings, yoga helps improve focus, ease anxiety, and build the strength to handle life’s ups and downs. In short, yoga supports both your body and mind as you grow and change.

  • Yoga’s poses, breathing exercises, and meditation help calm your nervous system, making you feel more balanced and relaxed. This practice lowers cortisol, which is the hormone that causes stress, and boosts the release of endorphins, natural chemicals that improve your mood. When you focus on your breath and movements, yoga helps you stay in the present moment, reducing worries and making your mind clearer. As you keep practicing, yoga builds inner calm and gives you helpful tools to handle stress more easily.

  • Combining physical movement with mindfulness supercharges your brain’s ability to focus for longer. When you move and stay mindful, more blood and oxygen reach your brain, making it work better. This means your thinking becomes clearer, stress levels go down, and distractions fade away. Whether you're paying attention in class or studying for a test, this mix helps you stay engaged and learn more effectively.

  • Embrace simple relaxation techniques and gentle rest routines to help you feel calm and ready for sleep. Activities like taking slow, deep breaths, gently relaxing your muscles one at a time, or focusing quietly on your breath can make your mind peaceful and your body relaxed. These calming habits create a cozy atmosphere that naturally helps you fall asleep easier and stay asleep longer. By winding down this way, you’ll enjoy a deeper, more refreshing sleep that leaves you feeling energized and ready for the next day.

  • Yoga helps kids and teens feel calm and balanced by teaching them to be aware of their feelings and thoughts. With simple breathing exercises and gentle stretches, yoga soothes the body and mind, making stress and worry easier to handle. This practice supports a peaceful mindset, so young people can face ups and downs with strength and calmness, creating a steady and happy inner world.

  • Perfect for kids and teens, yoga helps growing bodies get stronger and more flexible while improving the way they stand and sit. It supports a healthy spine and encourages muscles to work together evenly. By learning to move with control, young bodies can avoid common injuries from play and daily activities, building a healthy foundation for a lifetime of wellness.

  • Customised practices for kids and teens recognise and celebrate the many different ways their brains work and how they experience the world. By adjusting activities and learning methods to fit how each young person thinks, learns, and interacts, these approaches help create welcoming environments where everyone can feel safe and valued. This kind of personalised support boosts creativity, improves well-being, and helps young people discover and grow their unique strengths. It also encourages them to take part fully and share their ideas, making communities and groups stronger and more vibrant.

  • Learn how to stay calm and steady, even when things around you get messy or stressful. This means finding helpful ways to handle worries, keeping a clear and balanced mind when things are tough, and getting back up stronger after facing problems. By building your emotional strength, you can face challenges without losing your feeling of inner calm and confidence.

  • Yoga transcends mere physical flexibility; it is a holistic discipline encompassing breath control, meditation, and mindfulness, fostering a profound connection between mind, body, and spirit. Our classes honour this depth by offering tailored practices that accommodate your unique level, ensuring that each session nurtures personal growth rather than pushing physical limits. Flexibility is not a prerequisite, your journey begins exactly where you are, and we guide you gently toward balance and inner harmony.

  • For our sessions, the essentials you need to bring include a water bottle to keep you hydrated throughout, and comfortable clothing that allows full range of movement. There is no need to bring your own mats or props as we provide all necessary equipment on-site, ensuring a seamless and convenient experience.

  • All classes run for 60 minutes.

Each session is thoughtfully structured to introduce key postures, breathing exercises, and mindfulness practices, fostering both physical and mental development.

For those eager to delve deeper, supplementary materials and optional advanced workshops offer pathways to enhance flexibility, strength, and inner awareness.

  • Not at all, classes at Studio Bloom are intentionally kept small to foster a close-knit, supportive environment where every individual feels valued. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, encouraging personal growth without the pressure of competition. This approach allows participants to focus on their own progress and enjoy a genuine sense of community.

  • We understand that first-time nerves are real so we support those who may need a little extras support from mum or dad until they feel comfortable however traditionally we try to keep this as a kids + teen-only space designed specifically to provide a calm and focused environment. It ensures that they can unwind and concentrate without any outside distractions, maintaining a safe and supportive atmosphere tailored just for kids and teens. We also find it softens their desire to “perform” allowing them to truely ease into class.

  • You may notice a range of positive changes as you progress, including:

    • Less stress and better focus: Engaging in mindful movement and breathing techniques helps calm the mind, reducing anxiety and enhancing your ability to concentrate throughout the day.

    • Improved posture and flexibility: Regular practice encourages proper alignment and gently stretches muscles, leading to a more upright stance and greater ease of movement.

    • More confidence in your body: As your strength, balance, and awareness increase, you'll likely feel a deeper connection with your physical self, boosting self-assurance and overall presence.

Your instructor will be happy to offer modifications or alternative poses to suit your unique requirements, helping you to enjoy the full benefits of your practice.
