Where kids come to move, breathe, and be exactly who they are.

School-age kids are managing more than they let on. Homework, friendships, schedules, screens, and the low-grade pressure of growing up in a city that takes achievement seriously — even at age six. Yoga gives them somewhere to put all of that down for an hour.

At Breathing Space, kids yoga is genuinely fun. There are animal poses and adventure stories and games that get everyone moving. There is also — woven throughout — real skill-building: focus, breath awareness, physical confidence, and the ability to return to calm after big energy or big feelings. These are tools that show up later, at school, at home, and everywhere in between.

The best part, according to most kids, is that nobody is keeping score.

What Happens in Kids or Family Yoga Class?

Classes move through age-appropriate yoga poses and sequences, creative movement, breathing exercises, games, and relaxation — all built around a theme that gives the session shape and keeps kids engaged from warmup to savasana. Younger classes weave in songs, stories, and imaginative play. Older classes may include journaling, art, or discussion. Every class ends with some form of quiet relaxation.

Family yoga classes follow the same structure, with an emphasis on activities that parents and children do together. If you have a child at the edge of an age range, siblings one year younger or older are typically welcome — contact us if you're not sure.

Breathing Space also offers Yoga Trapeze for ages 8 and up — traditional yoga asana, breathwork, and relaxation built around aerial yoga trapeze rigs. And when school's out, Kids Yoga Day off and Summer Camp take everything we do in class and turn it into a full day of activities.
