Yaks Can Do Yoga!: A story about yoga, friendship and mindfulness - Paperback

by Snezana Danilovic (Author), Sandy Thornton (Illustrator), Natascha Biebow (Editor)

Yoga makes children happy, healthy and strong! But if you are a clumsy yak, with wobbly hooves, who has never done yoga before, it can be tricky. Join Yak in her first Happy Panda class and see how she discovers the power and playfulness of yoga.

Yaks Can Do Yoga! is the first book in the series.

Yoga makes children happy. Yoga is for everyone! Adorable, engaging characters and humorous stories draw in young children and get them hooked on yoga, creating healthy mind-body habits to last a lifetime.

Eight yoga poses and their benefits are clearly explained and illustrated at the back of each book so young children can easily do them at home or in the classroom.

Yoga enables children to slow down in today's fast world. With the busyness of day-to-day life, it can come as a surprise to children how enjoyable yoga mediation is when 'everything stops', enabling children feel calm.

Mindfulness and meditation are accessible and fun! The story's humorous, creative visualisation exercises tap into young children's innate imagination, facilitating a deeper understanding of their emotions and developing confidence and resilience.
