Our Little Diamonds
We give children a good mindset for life.
Child yoga is a wonderful practice that can have a positive impact on young minds.
Child yoga is an excellent way to introduce the next generation to the science of yoga and help them achieve personal growth. Kids of all ages can benefit from yoga, which can help them face the challenges of daily life. Our yoga sessions are designed with pedagogical principles in mind and are suitable for children aged four and up.
Children are precious; we tenderly refer as “Our Little Diamonds” because they embody the next generation. They hold a unique position to light up and guide the path ahead.
At Our Little Diamonds, we are delighted to offer a welcoming social gathering where every child can thrive! We respect the rights of all children and our commitment to inclusion ensures that every child, regardless of their background, will receive a warm reception. We believe that every child is unique and has the potential to shine bright. Our supportive environment is “think up” to help each child reach their full potential. Incorporating yoga into children's routines can have long-term positive effects on their physical, mental, and emotional well-being, which is especially important given the many challenges faced by children today that will undoubtedly impact their future.
It is devastating to learn that well over 300 million children and adolescents aged 4 to 18 lack access to any form of education, and one billion children globally are experiencing multidimensional poverty, according to UNICEF.
Conversely, it is astonishing to discover that more than 300 million people practice asana yoga at least once a week, with an even larger number adopting spiritual practices. This is a sharp contrast to the overwhelming numbers of children facing global injustice. The practice of yoga, undertaken individually or in groups, is regarded as a potent catalyst for positive transformation, serving as a powerful agent for change.
“Our Little Diamonds” is committed to shining a light on the injustices faced by children. We seek the support of the yoga community and other like-minded people who share our passion for this cause.
Yoga isn’t “just about our” personal well-being; it’s a bridge to collective change.
Do we not all face the task of creating a world characterised by compassion, mutual care, fair treatment for all and contributing to a better social environment? While these are admirable words, actualizing them remains a formidable challenge today.
Small acts of kindness have a transformative impact.
When we greet the sun, observe silence, perform Salah, or take care of the world, we cultivate awareness. Be assured that “every action matters.” Whether giving a kind word, lending a helping hand, or simply providing a listening ear, each gesture is significant.
Our Little Diamonds offers a unique platform for individuals and yoga institutes to share the joy and benefits of yoga with children globally.
- We make children's yoga accessible and popular by doing demonstration classes around the world.
- Our goal is to create enduring yoga programs for children in communities eager to offer yoga classes for their little ones, fostering a sustainable and healthy lifestyle from an early age.
- We “strife” for employment opportunities and equitable compensation for our committed yoga instructors with expertise in children's yoga.
The skills that yoga provides are immensely valuable and can benefit children and young adults in numerous ways. Reflect on the countless children who are suffering and continue to suffer from the trauma caused by poverty, war, and violence. They merit our immediate attention.
Your support can contribute to making children's yoga well-known, cherished, and practised. By supporting a yoga initiative, you can turn this vision into reality. It's a wonderful way to positively impact young lives.
Today, every child around the world is at risk.
As the world changes, each is facing new technologies, ongoing disruption in the economy, climate issues, geopolitics, and especially the increase in violence and wars. The youngest members of society are the most vulnerable to the numerous manifestations of global transformation that are taking place today. Steps must be taken to help children navigate the challenges we all face.
Our Little Diamonds invites you to contribute to the betterment of children's futures by sharing your expertise, knowledge, networks, and financial support.
