About Us
Beach Kids Yoga is an engaging, hands-on wellness program designed to teach young people the power and potential of their mind, body, and spirit.
Based in the South Bay of Los Angeles, Beach Kids Yoga has partnered with the City of Hermosa Beach Parks & Recreations Department to host weekly outdoor classes at Hermosa’s beautiful parks & beaches. All our classes support the development of mind-body connection, self-management, coordination, balance, body awareness, strength and overall motor skills.
We focus on creating a fun environment that fosters skills to help develop healthy relationships (with self and others), learning how to identify and manage emotions, working toward goals (as individuals and as teams) and connecting with nature through creative play.
Founded by Hermosa Beach local Erin MacDonald, a mother who holds a BFA in Dance, ERYT-500, RCYT, YACEP and KRI. Erin is trained in multiple group fitness formats, pre & post natal yoga & pilates with over 15 years teaching experience ranging from children to adults. Beach Kids Yoga was started for one simple reason: Give children access to the same world-class yoga & mindfulness teachings that adults benefit from every day.
Each week, kids are led through evolving classes based on yogic themes and principles that are fun and age appropriate. We use playful ways to introduce mindfulness and meditation activities, yoga asana (postures) and pranayama (breath work). Games, props, lots of imagination, storytelling and time in nature help support the development of healthy, happy and resilient children.
