Yoga Camp for Kids & Teens
During the summer, the Sivananda Yoga Ashram Camp in Val Morin, Quebec offers special programs and activities for children and teens. The ashram is located one hour north of Montreal in the beautiful Laurentian Mountains, giving children and teens the opportunity to enjoy nature, fresh air and the peaceful ashram environment.
Swami Vishnudevananda founded Sivananda Kids’ Yoga Camp in 1972 to help children lean basics of yoga as a means of achieving physical, mental and spiritual well being. He believed that if children are taught to discipline their mind and body from an early age, they will learn to become more peaceful, loving, tolerant, patient and understanding toward the whole of creation. Using the powerful tools of Yoga, he taught children to live a simple, happy and healthy life.
