This week, I talk to Katherine Priore Ghannam all about yoga for kids and her innovative program Headstand, which offered yoga to low-income K-12 schools around San Francisco.

We cover some of the lessons Katherine learned from starting her passion project from scratch, and why it’s oh-so-beneficial to introduce yoga and mindfulness in schools.

Whether you’re interested in sharing yoga with kids or just need some inspiration to keep working toward your goals, this episode is for you.

We talk about:

  • The story of how Headstand got its start (and why she kept at it despite many of the kids initial resistance)
  • Why she designed the yoga program as part of the school curriculum
  • How she uses the techniques she’s learned teaching school children into her own family
  • Practical tips for how to introduce yoga to children at different ages
