Yoga Kingdom
presents BrainEdventure to
awaken children’s awareness for emotional
control, while teaching them how the brain
functions and how to divert their focus and
concentration where it matters most. The
instructor uses yoga movement to train
children’s bodies, along with visualisation,
breathing techniques, games and singing.
The programme’s experienced designer
is Annie Walle, who’s registered by Yoga
Alliance UK to teach children’s yoga.
Incorporating the best strategies of Yoga,
BrainGym and Mindup, BrainEdventure
aims to develop children’s focus, attention
and social-emotional learning with joy.
