My kids love exploring their bodies' capability and playing the fun games. As a parent I appreciate the opportunity for cultivating kids' self-awareness and being meditative through profound messages, yoga poses and breathing exercises. These are fundamental qualities to have for becoming a successful human being. Thank you very much.

"What I like most is teaching the children about the importance of take care of themselves, of their feelings. How to get calm when they are feeling anxious or angry. In a very special way, Carlos has been sharing his recently acquired knowledge with all of us. Now my kids ask me if I need a hug when I look upset. (I don't have to say that this simple question is as powerful and magic that automatically melt my bad mood). Isn't it the most wonderful gift we can give to our kids?"

Our daughter Amelia has always had a very busy mind. She has been going to Imagination Yoga for the past year and we have seen increase in her ability to focus. Amelia has also become more aware of her feelings and developed strategies for managing some of her more intense emotions such as breathing, self-talk and visualising; we put a lot of this down to her time at Imagination Yoga. We would highly recommend this.

"My kids absolutely love Imagination Yoga. After their first class, they asked 'Can we do this the whole year?' They always leave the class happy, and enjoy practicing what they learned at home."
ALANYA LIMMER
"We love imagination yoga and are so glad we discovered it. This is our girls’ third term now. They look forward to going every week - it’s the one activity I never have to coerce them into attending. Both my girls can be shy and nervous but they are very comfortable with Lou and the class. Even with the class having got much bigger than it was in Term 1. Our oldest girl is the typical perfectionist who spends much time over-thinking things. The combination of imagination, mindfulness and physical activity is great for her. Lou is a wonderful, kind and patient teacher who the kids love and trust."
