Activities for your yoga party

How to play and what you need. Pick them in your plan and the supplies go on your shopping list.

Animal pose freeze

Ages 4 to 12 · 10 min

Play slow music. When it pauses, call out an animal, like cat, frog, downward dog or tree, and everyone strikes the pose and holds it for three breaths. Nobody is out.

You’ll need: Speaker and a playlist, Yoga mats

Partner balance

Ages 6 and up · 10 min

Pairs stand side by side, holding hands, and each lifts the inside foot for tree pose. Hold for ten slow breaths, then try sitting back to back. A wobble is just a laugh and a restart.

You’ll need: Yoga mats

Breathing buddies

Ages 4 and up · 10 min

Everyone lies on a mat with a small stuffed animal, or a folded towel, on their belly. Breathe in to lift it, breathe out to lower it, and rock it to sleep for five slow breaths.

You’ll need: Yoga mats, Small stuffed animals or folded towels

Gratitude circle

Ages 8 and up · 10 min

Sit in a circle and pass a soft ball. Whoever holds it says one thing they love about the guest of honor, or one thing they're grateful for, then passes it on.

You’ll need: A soft ball
