This book is very well-written and very informative! Like one of the other reviewers, I've been wanting to introduce my children to yoga, but hadn't really thought about what to do or how to do it. --All I know is that they can benefit from yoga, but they don't have the patience to sit with me through one of my long routines and, frankly, I don't have the patience to have them join me. (When I need yoga, I NEED yoga.) This book is the perfect solution. I have the kindle app on my phone, so my kids and I can quickly pull it up and try the latest pose. My 3 year-old daughter is so excited about it, but my 8 year-old son found it just as interesting. I do a lot of work with students, particularly with study skills and ADHD and am thrilled to recommend this book to my clients and customers. It's very professional and perfectly accomplishes its objective; to introduce kids and young adults to yoga in a very refreshing way!

This is a fantastically empowering book by a first-time young author - I love it! Hannah has taken the time to both explain each asana (yoga pose) and why other kids would be interested in doing yoga. In a world where kids typically spent over 40 hours a week in front of tv or other plugged-in devices, Hannah shows a great alternative and notes yoga's power to help kids de-stress to boot. Worksheets help users track their time on the mat and the whole book is very accessible for children as well as adults. Kids instinctively trust other kids. If you have children who really need help relaxing or getting a gentle introduction into exercise, I highly recommend "Yoga Basics for Kidz".

This book is amazingly well written with detailed instructions, photos and worksheets to follow and a good bit of humor. Even more amazing is that the author is just 13 years old. Hannah Hoobyar is a breath of fresh air! From the introduction, to the descriptions of the poses, to the reasons why yoga is great for kidz of all ages, Hannah shares all of this as if she's talking to her best friends. When talking with kids, (I know, I have 15 nieces and nephews) sometimes we adults forget the minute details necessary to convey our thoughts clearly and effectively to those who haven't had as much life experience as we've had. I'm very impressed with the level of detail the author provides in her instructions and descriptions. If you've never tried yoga before, this book will give you the confidence to try - no matter what your age. If you're an old hand at it, Hannah gives you the ways and means to easily share it with those you care about.
