Today's Review: Yoga For Small Spaces Cards
Christine Ristuccia, M.S. CCC-SLP and Lynn Geddes


I recently posted about the Learn With Yoga ABC Yoga Cards for Kids (here) and was lucky enough to have the opportunity to review the Yoga For Small Spaces Cards! These cards are not specifically for kids but are appropriate for everyone- youngin's to seniors. The first thing I thought of when I got this set was to use them on an airplane or in a car! What a great way to keep yourself busy- or better yet what a great way to keep your little ones busy!!!!


Another feature that stood out to me was using these for seniors, or anyone in rehab- great way to mix up their routine & keep it interesting and fun. And one more feature I love- great way to introduce kids to exercise without them even knowing their "exercising"!


Card Features
The set contains 52  5'' x 7'' cards that include verbal cues, modification, benefits, key element, affirmation and skill level are included for each exercise. All the exercises are specifically chosen to be done in a small space like a classroom, office, airplane, or breakroom! Each card includes a full color picture and is color-coded for desired outcomes such as grounding, creativity, inner-strength, tolerance, communication and problem solving.

Quick energizing exercises
Includes stretching to reduce repetitive-stress injury (staring at a computer, driving, typing)
Great indoor activity for rainy days (recess or gym class)
Fun "exercise for the whole family!
To use during transition between subjects in schools



All the exercises on the cards can be done standing or sitting in a chair- perfect for all those small spaces! And also super beneficial if you are restricted in movement due to injury or from being in rehab. I'm thinking these would be awesome to use in your car on long road trips with friends and/or family! I received these cards to review.
