In ‘Inspirations’, Dianne Elithorn at Lowercroft Primary is mad about yoga and, since qualifying to teach it to children, has introduced it throughout the school.
She believes it's a non-judgemental, non-competitive exercise that all pupils can do to aid posture, co-ordination and balance, strengthen muscles, release anxiety and help relaxation.
Yoga offers a constructive outlet for anger and aggression. It improves concentration and self-esteem, and can help pupils come to terms with emotional difficulties, all of which aid learning.
