Congo Camp 2010

The Yoga Campers's Yoga Mats!

Our Yoga Campers rolled up their Yoga Mats today after they ensured they knew all of the various positions well.

These campers are definitely happy that they can practice these positions and postures at home and use their Yoga knowledge to stay limber and fit.

Each of the campers was showing skill and versatility on this last day and we can tell that in only two weeks they have learned a lot from their counselors.  We would just like to say great job these past two weeks, Yoga Campers!

"Show the many postures you have learned in Yoga camp!".  Our Yoga Campers have learned many postures and poses over the first week of Congo Camp and started off the second week by practicing these.

One of the games that play actually involves the "telephone" position.  This position requires one to bring a foot up to the side of the head as if it were a telephone. 

Once the foot is in position, the campers then pretend to talk to each other through their foot.  It is quite an interesting game to watch and an even more interesting posture to see our campers be able to accomplish. 

The Yoga campers enjoyed a nice relaxing morning and we are excited to see the other positions they continue to learn over the course of the second week!

The aforementioned items are some of the daily to-dos in Yoga Camp.  These campers are probably some of the most relaxed we have seen this summer. 

They start off their mornings with breathing exercises to get their minds and bodies calm and centered.  After some time of these exercises, they take a small break before getting started with the next major part of their day.

Yoga stretches and postures occur following snack and these young Yoga campers do excellently at the various positions. 

We enjoy seeing the peaceful and calm energy emanating from the Yoga camp room and we are excited to see how well the campers get at their postures.

One of the most quiet and peaceful camps this session is Yoga camp.  In Yoga, our campers will be learning the various positions and postures required for Yoga.

They started off this morning with an interesting pose called the "camel" position.  For only the first day, these campers look like long term Yoga practicioners.

So, if you ever need a few minutes to cool down and clear your mind, then check out the Yoga camp for some relaxation time. 

We hope the Yoga campers are feeling relaxed after their Monday morning stretch.
