UniqKids Yoga – Kamilla Chmielewski
Kids’ yoga classes are on the rise and I thought it’d be awesome to bring them to the tri-city area and our local community! Adults already understand how great yoga is for your body and mind and do it all the time. But for kids, it’s a bit different. They might like the poses but find the whole routine a bit tricky to follow. Kids just learn things in their own special way, don’t they? So, that’s where I come in as your instructor, Kami. My job is to make yoga fun and just right for them, so they can enjoy it as much as we do!
In these yoga classes laughter and relaxation go hand in hand. From toddlers wobbling into tree poses to grade-schoolers stretching into strong warriors, these classes are a mix of fun and wellness for ages 1 to 9.
So, why should kids join in regularly? Think of it like this: tantrums become less frequent and more manageable,focus gets a boost, and flexibility goes beyond just the body. They gain balance, not just physically, but in life, too. In short – Kids’ yoga isn’t just about stretching; it’s about building confidence, learning to handle big emotions and of course having fun along the way!
And the perks?
- Better coordination
- Improved self-esteem
- Sharper focus
- And even sweeter dreams
—these are just a few of the gems waiting to be discovered.
So, why not let your little ones join in the yoga magic? Let them stretch, play, and find a little peace in the midst of it all. After all, in a world that can feel like it’s always rushing, watching kids slow down, breathe, and smile—it’s pure magic.
About the instructor
Hi, I’m Kami,
fueled by my own little one, Myla, who loves to join in on my yoga or fitness workouts in her own unique way, I got motivated to learn more about yoga for kids. That journey led me to become a certified kids yoga instructor with 50 hours of specialized training through Kidding Around Yoga.
I’ve picked up some fantastic techniques to keep children engaged, like using games, songs, instruments and crafts as a means to keep them motivated throughout a class. I’ve even tested out different approaches during Saturday morning classes I am teaching in Burnaby. Now, I’m excited to start my own journey of guiding kids through our busy lives in a fun and creative way.
I’ve crafted a variety of classes, hoping to offer something for everyone. From the high-energy Yoga & Movement class for those active kiddos to bedtime yoga, perfect for winding down before sleep. And let’s not forget about Roots & Reach Yoga, where we’ll explore nature and all its wonders outdoors. Check out the class descriptions below for all the details!
