At the YMCA of Kamloops, we understand the important roles that physical activity and mindfulness play in coping with stress and managing mental health. That’s why we have programs like Mindful Kids Yoga on their journey to become more active and learn healthy coping strategies.
Mindful Kids Yoga is a nurturing space where children ages 5-7 can discover the joy of movement, breath and self-awareness. Through playful poses, calming breathwork, and gentle guided relaxation, kids will build confidence, focus and emotional resilience - one breath at a time.
• Kids age 5-7 years old
• Opportunity to try a new mindfulness activity every week • Make new friends and have fun • Mindful Kids Yoga is FREE; YMCA membership is not required
The group is free, no membership required. Registration is required. Email mentalwellness@bc.ymca.ca to register.
If you're aged 18-30, we offer a free mindfulness program for your age group as well. Click below for more information.
