Book excerpt: Passionate yoga instructor, founder of Yogi Beans and mom of two, Lauren Chaitoff is committed to helping all kids find peace and joy through movement. She introduces children to the wonderful world of yoga with fundamental poses (like Cat, Cow and Downward Dog) alongside more fantastical ones (including Dinosaur, Mermaid and Silly Monster). In many instances, she modifies the traditional yoga pose to engage with children through child-friendly pose titles, breathing exercises and imaginative movements. For example, with the classic Tiger Pose (vyaghrasana), Lauren invites kids to get on all fours and lift their leg in the air, imagining that they are swinging their tiger tail behind them. Studies show that a daily yoga practice improves physical balance, strength and coordination while boosting focus, memory and self-esteem. Lauren is a champion of spreading awareness on yoga’s effectiveness at stress reduction and emotional regulation in children. Her exemplary work has been featured on Good Morning America, ABC News and the New York Post to name a few. Lauren makes yoga accessible and approachable for children and adults alike—and most importantly, provides healthy and fun entertainment for the whole family.
