Mumbai, 19th April 2021: SARVA, India’s fastest growing yoga-based wellness ecosystem, is all set to bring the wholesome benefits of yoga into the lives of children.

Children get enormous benefits from yoga. While physically, it enhances their flexibility, strength, coordination, and body awareness, it also improves concentration and brings about a sense of calmness in them. Yoga also helps children connect better with their inner self and strengthen their relationship with those around them. Overall, it helps boost immunity, increases memory and helps children get better at studies, improves growth both physical and emotional growth, and encourages body positivity in teenagers.
Speaking about this, Sarvesh Shashi, Founder, SARVA Yoga, said, “Today’s busy and stress-filled-world exposes even children to pressures from different quarters. The pandemic has only added to this stress. Children lack peer interaction with classes shifted online and this just adds to the woes. While we may dismiss these as basic things, the fact is that all this profoundly affects their inner joy and positive spirit. We want to help them navigate these challenges better and ensure that they gain the immunity needed in a new world through yoga. It can also help them achieve better health and relaxation, both physically and mentally. When their self-esteem and body awareness improve at an early age, they will grow up as more rounded human beings in life. We wanted to bring this gift of health to them through our partnership with the School of Sports.”
Adding further, Malaika Arora, Co-Founder, SARVA & Diva Yoga said, “Yoga is for everyone – irrespective of their age – and SARVA is defining this in its recent association with the School of Sports. Children are quick learners and initiating them into yoga at this age will ensure they enjoy its benefits in the long term. SARVA makes yoga fun and interesting which makes children more receptive to it. This is our aim and we hope to make a positive difference in their lives, especially in times like these.”
