Many children struggle with managing emotions, staying balanced, or processing sensory input. While these challenges are common in early childhood, they can impact your preschooler’s ability to feel calm, confident, and connected. That’s why we’ve created Preschool Sensory Yoga, a unique opportunity to support your child’s growth in a nurturing and engaging environment.
Our Preschool Sensory Yoga Program is intentionally crafted to support 3 and 4-year-olds in developing emotional regulation, motor coordination, and sensory processing skills.
Unlike most yoga classes for children, our program integrates sensory-focused occupational therapy techniques with customized pediatric yoga and mindfulness practices. This approach creates a nurturing and inclusive environment where every child—especially those with sensory challenges—can grow, learn, and thrive.
Program Goals:
Emotional & Self-Regulation: Develop tools to recognize and regulate their emotions, enhancing awareness and coping skills.
- Practice breathing exercises and mindfulness to calm their nervous system.
- Use visual aids and other strategies to recognize and name feelings.
- Engage in grounding techniques to build self-regulation skills.
Motor Coordination: Build strength, balance, and postural control through fun and developmentally appropriate yoga poses.
- Explore poses to improve balance and coordination.
- Practice simple movement sequences to enhance motor planning and teamwork.
Sensory Processing & Interoceptive Awareness: Improve sensory integration and awareness through yoga and mindfulness techniques tailored to their needs.
- Use sensory props to support sensory integration.
- Experience body scans and other mindfulness activities to develop body awareness.
