5 Yoga Games with my Yoga Pose Flashcards
4. Musical yoga pose statues
This one is probably quite self explanatory but children dance while the music is on and freeze in a yoga pose when the music stops. Pull a card each time the music stops to tell everyone which pose to freeze in. You can read the prompts to help anyone who has forgotten that pose - then give five seconds to find stillness in the pose. Try to choose positive and uplifting music in yoga and something the children know tends to work best.
5. Yogi Says
This is a simple take on the traditional game Simon Says. Stand at the front pulling cards from the deck. Say “yogi says move into - whichever pose you have pulled from the deck”. Every so often leave out the “yogi says” - children should not make the pose but remain in the previous pose.
