We have been our exploring our body following the journey of Taha Tinana. This has included learning about our body inside and out and about our physical movement. As part of this we were excited to have Rochelle Fleming from Core Strength Pilates studio on Uxbridge Road join us for two children's yoga sessions.
Yoga is a fantastic tool for tamariki to explore their bodies, hearts and minds, release energy and learn how to calm and focus their minds. It benefits the body by offering balance and flexibility and strengthens our lungs.
We started off exploring our favourite characters and animals through fun yoga poses, then continued with some different yoga games.
What an engaging fun two mornings of Yoga!
On board the yoga train...... choo choo!. The train driver (leader) gets to choose a pose at each stop. Zac chose butterfly, Leo the leopard, Scottie the dancer and Stevie the unicorn.
The next game was....
What's the time Mrs Wolf?
1'Oclock - we took one step forward and struck a pose.
What's the time Mrs Wolf?

There were screams of laughter as we ran for our lives.
