This unit introduces Year 4 students to yoga as both a physical practice and a mindfulness tool, emphasising the connection between breath, movement, and mental focus. The approach builds from individual practice to collaborative creation, developing not only physical strength and flexibility but also emotional regulation and cooperative skills.
