Little yogis. Big possibilities.
Movement, mindfulness, and a little magic.
Children are learning who they are every day. Yoga for Youth gives them opportunities to move their bodies, explore their feelings, build confidence, enjoy stories, and connect with others. Rooted in SunshineFLO's community wellness work in Stark County, this program brings together age-appropriate yoga, movement, and literacy in an environment where children can learn and play.

More than a yoga class
Yoga for Youth is designed to make wellness approachable and fun. We recognize that children have different temperaments, experiences, interests, and ways of learning. Our approach emphasizes encouragement over perfection and participation over performance.
Children are not expected to sit still, master poses, or share personal feelings to belong. Our goal is to create a welcoming environment where movement and learning can work together.

Who is it for?
Yoga for Youth has historically served children ages 3–9. Specific age ranges, locations, accessibility arrangements, schedules, and registration requirements will be shared when a program cohort is open.
Parents, caregivers, schools, youth-serving organizations, and community partners are invited to contact SunshineFLO about potential programming opportunities.
