"Bir kez masallarin zamanina gectikten sonra artik her sey masaldir' demis bir masal...

Yoga`nin cocuklar icin faydalarindan bazilarini masal diliyle yazarsak:

1.Esneklik
Fiziksel saglamlik, degisik kas gruplarinin farkina varmak ve kullanmak, onlari hayat boyu tasiyacak vucutlari icin gerekli degil mi ? Mesela MASAL der ki " Egilmeye direnen agac dallari daha cabuk kirilir". Ve esnek olan daha saglamdir degil mi?

2. Denge
Denge hayatin her noktasinda karsimiza cikar. Fazla veya eksik yapilan hic bir sey surdurulebilir degildir. Denge duruslari sayesinde bedensel, fiziksel ve ruhsal uyuma ulasilir. Mesela MASAL der ki " Sorumluluk almak ve eglenmek bir arada yuruyen kavramlardir yasamda. Sorumluluk almayi gereksiz ciddiyet, sorumsuz olmayi hayattan keyif almakla karistirmamak gerekir. Burada da dengeyi bulmak lazimdir'

3. Konsantrasyon
Masalin icine yoga hareketleriyle girmek,masal kahramanlarini yoga hareketleriyle canlandirmak nasil bir duygudur dusunun. Cunku bir masalin icine girdigimizde diger dusuncelerimizi birakip ona odaklaniriz. Dikkatimizi sadece ona veririz. Mesela MASAL`da dagi hareket etme dansi yaparak koca bir dagi bile yerinden oynatabiliriz. Sonunda bir amac icin gosterilen her cabanin degerini kavrariz.

4. Rekabetin olmadigi bir gruba aidiyet hissi
Masal yoga bittiginde cember adabi ile oturup masalin bizde biraktigi yansimalari konusuruz. Ilgiyle dinledigimiz, yoga hareketleriyle eslik ettigimiz masallari ozumseriz. Mesela " masal bize karsilastigimiz herkesin bizi donusturmek icin var oldugunu ve olaylarin sadece bir imtihandan ibaret oldugunu gosterir" * Yoga grubumuzla birlikte oturur imtihanlari konusuruz.
* sifahen masallar'dan alintidir.

5. Kendine guven hissi
Masal ve oyunlarla yapilan yogada kazanan-kaybeden yoktur. Yardimlasma vardir. Esli yapilan hareketlerde paylasim, birbirine guvenme, destek olma vardir. Mesela masalda bir yaris ati olamadigi icin uzulen Midilli, kendi kisa bacaklarinin ne kadar guclu oldugunu farkettikten sonra yaslilara yemek tasiyarak yardim etmeye baslar.

6. Beden-Zihin- Kalp Butunlugu
Hizli akan tempomuz, okul-ders-sinav-teknoloji cemberi icinde kendi akisinda kalma mucadelesi veren cocuklarimiz. Yoga yaparak bedenimizi farketmek, zihnimizle sadece hareketimize odaklanmak gerginlikleri azaltir. Dinginlestirir. Kalbimizi yumusatir,sefkatin yolunu acar. Mesela masalda yalan soyleyen tilkiyi oldurmek uzere olan bir bekci kopegi, tilkinin yavrularinin ac oldugunu duydugunda hem tilkinin hayatini hem de yavrularina goturmesi icin koca bir et parcasi bagislar.

Our Story

‘’Do you know the story of Mouse Frederick? Winter is near and all the mouses are busy preparing and gathering food for the cold months ahead- all except for Frederick. Always the daydreamer, Frederick sits on a stone and collects the sun ray’s, colors and words that will warm the hearts and feed the spirits of his fellow mouses when they run out of food.

Storytellers are just like Frederick.They stand in the rush of life and gather colors, voices, words, tastes, and smells. And then they share all the stories they have gathered with people’*

It’s beautiful to do yoga with stories & tales. Children love tales. We weave together characters, yoga and imagination to create a magical journey that will capture your kid’s attention and hearts.
