Kids Yoga: Bedtime

About This Class

This 7-minute kids' bedtime yoga class with Amanda Huggins is crafted entirely around cultivating sleepiness and relaxation. Amanda uses warm, child-friendly language — comparing poses to hugging pillows and rocking in a cradle — to guide young practitioners through a soothing, floor-based sequence. The class begins with a seated forward fold with a rounded back, moves into a gentle spinal twist on each side, transitions to Butterfly (Baddha Konasana) and its reclined variation (Supta Baddha Konasana) with breath awareness on the belly and heart, and then flows through Happy Baby and a knees-to-chest rock before settling into Savasana (framed as "yoga nap time"). Deep, slow breathing is the central thread throughout, explicitly framed as a tool to calm both the mind and body. The pace is deliberately molasses-slow, and the overall intention is to help children use yoga as a bedtime ritual to ease the transition into sleep.
