Kids’ Yoga Tips: Children under 16
One group, The American Yoga Association, believes that “Yoga exercises are not recommended for children under 16 because their bodies’ nervous and glandular systems are still growing, and the effect of Yoga exercises on these systems may interfere with natural growth.”

Parents should be aware of this opinion and consider it when deciding whether or not to allow their children to practice Yoga.–Yogaguru

Also, babies receive the benefit of touch, which studies have shown aid in the cognitive development and a sense of well-being as the baby grows older.

Kids’ Yoga Tips: Kids’ Imagination in Yoga

If there is one thing kids know how to do, it’s play. And if you’re teaching yoga to a child, you’ll see how quickly s/he will take to the poses. In a practice like Kundalini yoga, for example, the concept of energy as a coiled snake within our spine is quite readily accepted by children. Their imaginations are so pure that as they practice the asanas and pranayamas, they will be more able to envision the symbols that enhance each stage of the practice.
