This course gave me so many fun and practical tools to share yoga with my kids. We’ve started doing short practices together in the evenings, and it’s become a special bonding time for us. As a yoga teacher, I also feel confident now offering family-friendly classes in my studio. Truly a heartwarming and valuable training!
