Yoga Clothing for Children

Introducing children to yoga can go a long way in teaching young kids how to deal with stress, as well as setting them on a path to good fitness for the rest of their lives. Dress your yoga baby for success.

  1. Comfortable

    • The focus of yoga is stress relief, flexibility and personal fitness. When your kid is twisting and turning into various yoga poses, he needs to feel comfortable in what he wears. Gym shorts, sweat pants and T-shirts are a good choice for your yoga child.

    Breathable

    • Dress your kid in breathable fabrics as she takes on mind and body awareness. Sweat is a big part of yoga, but no one wants to feel sweaty as they twist their spine during a delicate pose. Breathable fabrics wick away sweat from the body, keeping wearers dry as they perspire. Examples of breathable fabrics include Stomatex, Coolmax, Supplex and 100 percent cotton (not cotton blends).

    Tight Fit

    • Yoga clothes for children should not be restrictively tight, but when doing the downward facing dog, it is important that their shirts not ride up into their faces. A relatively tight fitting shirt will help you child feel comfortable as he unlocks the secrets to a rested body and mind during yoga practice.
