The weather is warm again! The sun is out and so are many little animals. Kids love to embody animals through yoga. It's fun for adults too! For all ages, Frog Jumps are also a way to burn off excess energy, making more relaxing poses that can follow more accessible. Yogis of all ages can also feel a bit more connected to nature through moving like animals. Let's look at how to practice Frog Jumps!
Tips:Adult bodies can regulate temperature more effectively than children's bodies. If you're doing these Frog Jumps with children, perhaps in a larger yoga sequence or class, watch for red cheeks and signs of fatigue. That means it's time for some cooling breaths, more restful poses, and perhaps a break for a cool drink.
Additionally, two year-old children can practice Frog Jumps, but they will likely jump their whole bodies up rather than just their lower bodies (with hands staying on the ground). Their bodies likely aren't ready for the kinesthetic organization happening here. That's okay -- they're still getting many of the benefits of the movement, and their bodies are beginning to learn that organization (even if it doesn't look like it).
Pose:Frog Jumps Ages: appropriate for toddlers and up Mantra: "I can fly high." |
