Rise Up Kids Yoga & OT

Welcome to Rise Up Kids Yoga & OT (aka RUKYOT!).

This service aims to assist young people to learn skills that can help to help them deal with everyday moments in life and have fun all at the same time!

Rise Up Kids Yoga & OT run yoga programs and classes that teach healthy lifestyle habits and overall wellbeing through the mindful activity of Yoga, Yoga Therapy, breath work and other emotional regulation strategies.

RUKYOT practices values of 'Meaningful Fun' and 'Wellbeing'. When people have fun, feel safe and comfortable, they become curious, explore and learn. When people can apply their learnings, well researched and effective skills and strategies to help themselves, it's has a positive affect on their overall wellbeing.

Meaningful Fun =Learning = Wellbeing = Empowerment

“Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain.” Sometimes we can't avoid the puddles left by the storms, we need to go through them, so why not dance or do yoga in them?! :)
