​About Radiant Child Yoga

The Vision of Radiant Child Yoga is to create a world of peace through the union of yoga and  children.  The Radiant Child is self-aware, who honors the spirit in all, and is naturally dedicated to creating a world of peace.  Yoga is a holistic, practical tool toward that end.
​
RCY was founded by Shakta Khalsa, E-RYT 500, AMS Montessori educator, published author, & internationally recognized teacher for both adults and children, having taught extensively at conferences and gatherings for over four decades  As one of the founders of the children's yoga movement, Shakta developed the Radiant Child Yoga training program in 1999.  Since that time, she has trained select RCY facilitators who, with Shakta, have taught thousands of yoga teachers, school teachers, therapists, parents & grandparents the art of children's yoga.

Radiant Child Yoga is based 75% in Kundalini Yoga (energetic) & 25% in Hatha Yoga (stable).  A perfect blend for children of all ages!

A Radiant Child Yoga class incorporates: Breath Work, Active Yoga, Relaxation, & Meditation. 

Radiant Child Yoga is taught both throughout  the USA and Internationally.
