Parents and children can take a break from stressful schedules with 'Parent/Infant Yoga,' 'Parent/Toddler Yoga' and 'Kids Yoga' classes at the Madison Area YMCA, 111 Kings Road.
Yoga is promoted for babies and toddlers in improving digestion, strengthening bonds with parents, reducing anxiety and developing body awareness.
Jennifer Casanova, the YMCA's associate fitness director, said classes are offered at an introductory level that allows both parent and infant or toddler to experience the benefits of yoga through touch and eye contact.
During the YMCA's summer session, 'Parent/Infant Yoga' classes, available to children from 3 months to crawling, are offered 5:15 to 5:45 p.m. Wednesday. 'Parent/Toddler' classes for crawling toddlers to 36 month olds are held from 5:30 to 6:15 p.m. Thursdays. There are also yoga classes for older children, 6 to 9, including 'Yoga for Kids' from 9:30 to 10:15 a.m. every Monday.
New and current YMCA members may register at the family Center at 111 King Road. Summer classes are in session and continue through the week of Monday, Aug. 11. For information call (973) 822 9622, ext. 2242.
