Peaceful Kids

In 2017, Alpharetta Lifestyle magazine interviewed Sedef Dion, co-creator of Pre-Grounded Kids Yoga, for an article called “Peaceful Kids.” At the time Sedef taught children’s yoga at Life Time Fitness Alpharetta, in classes for children as young as 3.

Sedef spoke about what yoga gives children: strength, flexibility, self-awareness, self-regulation and focus, along with tools for handling stress and anxiety. On children with special needs, she said, “Yoga is safe and beneficial for any age and ability level.” She explained that she teaches them with concrete directions and visuals.

Asked why children should learn yoga, she said, “Yoga encourages children to master themselves rather than wait for an adult to control them.”
