Why do preteens do yoga? 🤔

At first, you think it’s for “mindfulness” and “flexibility.”

Cute. Adorable. Very wholesome.

But let’s be honest:

🧘‍♀️ It’s mostly because they can finally sit on the floor in weird positions without their knees sounding like microwave popcorn.

🧘‍♂️ It’s the only place where falling over is called “exploring your balance” instead of “being dramatic.”

🧘 It gives them a valid reason to lie down in silence and ignore everyone. (A life skill, honestly.)

🧘‍♀️ They love saying things like “I’m aligning my chakras” when really they just don’t want to tidy their room.

🧘‍♂️ Also: handstands. Endless handstands. Against every available wall in the house.

Meanwhile, the instructor is saying:

“Release all tension…”

…and the parents are in the corner like:

“Can you release it at HOME too??”

But hey — if yoga keeps them calm for even 7 minutes, that’s basically a miracle. Namaste… and please put your socks in the laundry basket. 🙏
