Our virtual educational programs are accessible to kids yoga educators and professionals around the world.

Our mission is to support kids yoga and mindfulness educators and professionals as they promote health equity amongst children, youth, families and communities through evidence-based and evidence-informed yoga and mindfulness.

Our educational programs support kids yoga and mindfulness educators and professionals to reduce mental health stigma, reduce and prevent type 2 diabetes, reduce and prevent commercial tobacco use and increase physical movement among children, youth, families, and communities. 

Your generosity and donation of any amount will help the National Kids Yoga Conference, a project of YoKid…Stretch Your Limits continue to grow our educational programs, events, and resources in 2022.
