First Annual International Kids’ Yoga Day to Take Place April 8 in 45 States and 18 Countries

Its creator, bestselling author Teresa Anne Power, says at 11 a.m., over 21,000 kids will spend five minutes at schools and other places doing fun yoga poses and celebrating fitness.

On April 8th, from 11:00 A.M. to 11:05 A.M., thousands of schoolchildren around the world, including those in at least 45 states in the U.S., will put down their books and let their imaginations run free as they mold themselves into trees, flamingos, windmills, kites, and other kid-friendly positions.

They will be joined by children at home and other locations, all led by more than 100 official ambassadors to raise global awareness about yoga for kids. It’s all part of the first annual Kids’ Yoga Day  envisioned by Teresa Anne Power, a bestselling author whose latest book, ‘The ABCs of Yoga for Kids: A Guide for Parents and Teachers,” is being released that day.

An internationally recognized expert on children’s yoga and author of the beautifully illustrated “The ABCs of Yoga for Kids” – a book that has sold more than 1/4 million copies in four languages – Power says few people understand how powerful yoga can be.

More than a great way to become fit, she says parents who practice yoga with their children get a bonus: stronger relationships with them. “When you both do something healthy and fun, you will get closer,” she observes, noting that the type of yoga she favors is playful and does not involve chanting.
