This week's kids yoga classes are inspired by the Winter Olympics - Milano Cortina 2026. To give you a glimpse of what a kids yoga class based on the Olympics looks like, here’s a little of what I came up with:
-Flying to Italy (airplane pose in the middle of the room/at the wall)
-Marching in the opening ceremonies (follow the leader with unique ways of moving in a line while listening to the Olympic Theme)
-Participating in events like cross country skiing (chair pose, swing arms), snowboarding (warrior 2 variation), hockey (goddess pose) and curling (low lunge/lizard) to name just a few.
-For rest we start in luge pose (lay on backs and lift head) before we relax like a proud olympian after their event
If you want more, I'm happy to share with you my full detailed Winter Olympics Kids Yoga lesson plan. We also have a Winter Olympics playlist specifically designed to go with class (complete with a resting song at the end), so you can get in the spirit at home or the classroom!
