We are here to show you exercise! So everyone please take your seats

The imperative

enjoy the show and we will be here on screen

you heard it first from Mr. Roan - wait wait can I

please tell everyone what we're doing? No I will do it!

I will do it! Can you tell them can you tell what we're gonna do first?

Ok I will do it. Okay go ahead. First everyone, we are going

I'm going to read our exercise board, then

What, no I will tell them something. But I want to tell them something

I want to talk I want to do it! Will you tell them? Okay

I am going to read the whole list and I read the whole list

Go ahead, tell them. Alright yoga is exercise

exercise where I could try to make my body

look like different animals or shapes. I begin yoga with a combination of

my muscles and my mind. I may try to look like a cat, dog or

Listen to my teacher. I may do yoga with a

partner. Yoga can be fun. And I can learn

too and one more thing, don't forget to drink water. Thank you!

for telling everyone that! Can we show them how we do your yoga

breathing? Okay. Alright. So he's following a visual schedule

That we talked about. We are doing calm body

or adults like Mommy and the principle. Yes

After we do the calm body. We get up and we do the

seconds. So let's do the candle. No the combine breathing

and I just work on Roan. He's raising his tummy up and down, breathing in

through his nose, out through his mouth, he's doing perfect

focused. But when we started it wasn't this way

Yes. But that's okay, because we have fun when we

we will show you this candle. Come on, up on our knees

We're doing 15. Very good. Ready? So what we're doing

is we're really preparing him to now stand up and do some bigger

gross motor movements and this is something that you can do with your kids

your students, your adults, again to start them low

to start them low on the ground and then prepare them to stand

and get their bodies ready to move. Very good. Alright so we did

15 and he's following his schedule perfectly

which again may not always happen but at least this is that

visual guide, to give your students, or your children

just a better guide to what you're asking them to do

so some type of visual support is necessary. Good. Now let's show them the next exercise

Ready? Can somebody set the time? Yep. Go ahead, put your feet

put footprints here for 'em, but he knows what

Okay so we know what the footprints for us

for today and I would like, first on the schedule

Let's finish our claps, let's finish our schedule. So we have to do our claps and know how to do this and

or your teachers or your parents to do it. Yes and

Nice job! Alright. Next is the Spike breathing. Who's spike?

my dog is Spike, that's right Mommy and so

so if you have a dog named Spike, you can do this

Spike breathing with your dog and apparently you could do this

one with your child or with your yoga teacher like

yeah. Alright. So who has a dog named Spike? You do

Yes! So let's do it, let's show everyone your Spike breathing. So we're going to show you

all about your Spike breathing, because today

we know...Now you guys will find this hard to believe but when I first worked with

he is excellent and this is one of the first things we started with was yoga

because at his age - oh no I'm saying too much!

I know I know. Alright I'm not talking. So if you did this one with your

and it's fine if it doesn't look exactly like you demonstrate or you show on the card or that

the picture on the card, as long as they're moving that's what we want to do

we want to get our kids moving. No no no!
