The perfect anti-dote to all the stimuli from full-on living – from electronic devices and social media (not to mention the hormones), this is great ‘time out’. Highly enjoyable sessions working with breath movement, balance and posture. Kids and young adults learn simple tools to reduce stress, improve concentration and self confidence – building strength, physical fitness and energy levels along the way. Non-competitive and for all physical abilities.
