Our Mission

The mission of Yoga Benefits Kids is to improve the strength and flexibility of children's minds and bodies. We enhance kids' mental, emotional, and physical health through the use of movement, stress management, and the connection between the brain, body, and breath. By collaborating with like-minded organizations, Yoga Benefits Kids creates a diverse community by providing our youth with tools that develop confidence and courage to create healthier bodies, make better decisions, develop stronger relationships, and become more successful.

Yoga Benefits Kids at Memminger Elementary

Testimonials

“"Our girls (at Sixth Grade Academy) absolutely LOVE their Yoga Benefits Kids classes! Students who are not in the yoga classes so frequently ask to be a part of the program, that we created a Bring A Friend Day to satisfy all of the requests we get each week. It's a delight to watch the girls become more courageous confident people. Thank you, YBK!"”

Lizzie Davis

of Communities In Schools at Sixth Grade Academy

“In a follow up about our first day of yoga at NCES, Leslie explained "she had the chance to teach (the student) what she missed and (student) went back to class with a smile on her face. :)"”

Leslie Skinner

of Communities In Schools at North Charleston Elementary

“Today a student got angry and was throwing a fit. I reminded him about "dump truck breath", and he did it with me. A few minutes later, he was calm and verbalized to me why he was upset. Without Yoga Benefit Kids, he would have not known a strategy to calm down. What an asset the program is to our school! Thank you to all the instructors and to you, Caryn! ”

Josie Strong

of Memminger Elementary

“Teaching at the Sixth Grade Academy has been a truly amazing experience because I have had the privilege of seeing the girls come alive and grow each week of our YBK class. Getting to know these beautiful girls and then teaching them skills that can help them build happier and healthier lives is a reward of the best kind - it speaks to the heart and gives strength to the soul. Thank you to Caryn, Lizzie, and the girls at SGA for the opportunity to be a part of such positivity. ”
