Yoga for Small Spaces is a set of 52 large cards that will help you and your kids get moving while increasing your attention and reception to learning. Each card is color-coded for desired outcomes such as grounding, creativity, inner-strength, tolerance, communication and problem solving. All the exercises are specifically chosen to be done in a small space like a classroom, office or airplane, and they can all be done standing or sitting in a chair - excellent if you don’t have much space or are restricted in movement due to injury or rehab. Verbal cues, modification, benefits, key element, affirmation and skill level are included for each exercise, so no prior experience with yoga is required. Use the exercises on the cards as quick energy pick-me-ups, to reduce repetitive-stress injury such as long sessions at a computer, for classroom transition between subjects, as pre-therapy warm-up to reduce anxiety by triggering relaxation response and as a physical fitness activity on a rainy day recess or gym class. Yoga for Small Spaces is great for children, teens, adults and seniors.

"I think it's a great idea and having a tool for ‘self regulation’ is wonderful for a child to know. There were many exercises that all seemed good, easy to understand and do."

"This works well in group settings. Kids love to follow along with these easy exercises."

"These cards are important to teach kids to have a ‘control’ or develop a pattern for self-control."

"I like how the cards are dispensed from the top of the box and the lid comes off all the way. This is great for traveling with kids. We are going on a family vacation in a few weeks and I have been buying activities to keep them busy in the car (activity books, coloring/writing supplies, books) and this yoga activity would be perfect. My kids had a lot of fun with it."

"As a parent, I think teaching your child to be able to de-stress/regulate their mood is very important. Useful for at home and in school (de-stress strategies). The exercises in this deck meet that goal, and would also be useful for child therapists and school personnel."
