Yoga Classes for Kids in Leicester
Bala Yoga that feels like play and works like training
Children today sit more than any generation before them, hunched over tablets, homework and school desks. Bala Yoga gives that body somewhere else to go: animal poses, yoga stories and breathing games that open the hips and shoulders, and a short calm at the end that a restless child genuinely learns to settle into.

Bala Yoga that feels like play and works like training
An adult yoga class shrunk down for children loses them in ten minutes, because holding a pose and counting breaths is not how a seven-year-old engages. Bala Yoga is built the other way round, from play towards practice, so the child keeps coming back and the posture and focus arrive almost without them noticing.
Leicester has one of the oldest and most settled Indian communities in Britain, and that changes what parents want from us. Families here are often third-generation, and the request is usually to recover something a grandparent had rather than to maintain something the household still practises.

Batch timings for Leicester
Live classes on GMT/BST, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Weekday 4:30 to 7:00 PM UK after school, and Saturday mornings. Leicester shares timings with our London batches, and children from both usually sit together.
Belgrave and the surrounding wards are where most of our Leicester families are, with others across the East Midlands. We are asked more often here than anywhere else in the UK for classes that a grandparent can sit in on, and that is welcome.

Three simple steps to begin
1. Tell us about your child
Call or WhatsApp us and say where your child is starting from. For yoga classes for kids that matters — the mentor pitches the first class to what they can already do.
2. Personal guidance from a mentor
A real, live class, not a sales call. The mentor works with your child for the full session and then tells you honestly whether this is the right class of ours for them.
3. Pick a slot that survives the school week
We place your child in a batch built for GMT/BST. Weekday 4:30 to 7:00 PM UK after school, and Saturday mornings.
“The Ramayana classes are the highlight of my daughter’s week. She now teaches us the values she learns. As NRI parents in Dubai, this connection to our culture is priceless.”
Yoga Classes for Kids in Leicester, FAQs
Restless children often enjoy it most, because the class is built around movement, stories and games rather than holding still. Batches are small, so the mentor keeps every child involved by name.
