Movement to support the teaching of Yoga for children

We would like to promote the implementation of yoga from the infant education stage as it provides multiple benefits if practised regularly.

"When you walk, just walk,when you eat, just eat; when you dance, just dance..."

Zen Proverb 

The current education system pays too much attention to purely intellectual and disciplinary elements but neglects the most essential aspects of man's relationship with his most essential nature, such as learning to breathe, to relax, to know our body or to manage our energy.

Education experts agree that practising yoga in childhood has enormous social benefits:

• It has a direct impact on the reduction of illness, stress, anxiety, improved academic performance, creativity and citizenship, but above all on the development of children as individuals.
• Countries such as France, the United Kingdom and Belgium have been experimenting with this idea since 1988, while in Spain the incorporation of these techniques in education is a long way behind.
• The costs associated with it are minimal, so there is no doubt that this is a change for the better and we support the Ministry of Education in promoting it in education curricula.

From Conscious Television we would like to contribute to build a better future. You can watch our Yoga course for children taught by Marta Nieto on Conscious Television.
