KIDS YOGA CAMP


Lifespan Yoga™ is offering a special children’s yoga program this summer at 12276-207 San Jose Blvd, Jacksonville, Fl 32223. Camp will be held 9:30am- noon on specific days and cost $20 per child, per session. Children above the age of four are welcome. Each day will have a schedule of yoga, relaxation, music, character education, snack, and crafts. We will explore each of the internationally embraced character strengths of Wisdom, Courage, Humanity, Justice, Temperance, and Transcendence.

Psychologists have identified six broad categories of character strengths respected by cultures throughout the world. These categories are:

1.                          wisdom (cognitive strengths like love of learning, creativity, curiosity, critical thinking, judgment, perspective taking)

2.                          Courage (strengths of the will like bravery, persistence, integrity, and enthusiasm)

3.                          Humanity (interpersonal strengths like love, caring, kindness, and social intelligence)

4.                          Justice (civic strengths like citizenship, fairness, and leadership)

5.                          Temperance (strengths of self-control like forgiveness, mercy, humility, modest, prudence)

6.                          Transcendence (strengths that provide meaning like spirituality, faith, purpose, humor, hope, and gratitude, wonder). Each person is said to excel in one or two of these broad categories by exhibiting the related character strengths.
