I decided to make video blogging super simple & integrate it in to my life with ease. It is something I have been wanting to do on a consistent regular basis, and was inspired by my friend Gina Axelson (The Pilates Biz) to take my flip cam with me on my dog walks every Wednesday. Enjoy this video on how you too can incorporate things in your life that you want to do, simply.
What do you want to make easy in your life? I’d love to hear from you, please leave me a comment.
I had the great opportunity to talk with Shiny Gilly about Why Kids Love Yoga, the many benefits of kids doing yoga & how yoga is not a religion. Enjoy & please do leave me a comment below.
In most kids yoga classes we do poses on our own mat, in our own space, with our own body. Partner Yoga is a wonderful change where we share space, stretches & energies and some may even prefer it. Here is a complete video with specific poses & good practices for partner yoga with kids of all ages & stages.
Please leave a comment & share this video if you feel inspired.
When faced with a child who was resistant to doing yoga … I couldn’t help but meet him where he was at. Where he was at, was hungry with a large size chocolate chip cookie in his hand! Check out this kid inspired yoga lesson: Chocolate Chip Cookie Yoga.
Please help spread the love & share Why Kids Love Yoga! And leave me a comment below xo

A wonderful theme to share with kids is the 5 W’s of Yoga ~ it is a great way to introduce kids to What is Yoga, Where does it come from, Who started Yoga, When was it created & Why do we do it … don’t just sit there & talk, move the body & weave the theme in to the class.
This lesson plan is available on our website for purchase!

Please do let us know how it went & what you think! Oh & remember to share the love
I spent days & nights with self-induced pressure to create a training program that would be perfect. Once I realized what I was doing to myself and those around me, I surrendered to the perfection of imperfection. Listen to my story and how I freed myself up to create a rockstar Train-the-Trainer.
Leave me a comment, Id love to hear about your take on being a perfectionist, or not!
When was the last time you played hard like a child? Doing so can really help to raise your energy, lift your spirit and enhance your vitality. I know this firsthand because I do it all the time!
“We don’t stop playing because we grow old ~ we grow old because we stop playing.”
In celebration of NGY’s entrance into its 14th year of business, I took myself to Europe. After 2-weeks of traveling & unplugging from work, I am feeling a significant amount of fresh energy ~ ready to teach, train & create. I realize the importance of taking time off, to recharge & fill up my well so that I can be of better service to you & the world. I highly recommend the same for you!
As the Founder of Next Generation Yoga, I truly feel like I am Dorothy on the Yellow Brick Road. Actually, we are all are on a journey and meet many characters who inspire us to use our heart, courage & brain. In June, I enter my 14th year on the path with NGY ~ in the video below I share with you my amazing story. Id love to hear yours, so please post a comment and tell me about your journey along the yellow brick road.
So excited to share with you this first video blog by NGY Founder Jodi Komitor. Inspired by a fulfilling birthday weekend and what a 9 year old had to say in response to Jodi hardly receiving any birthday presents, this video will share with you how to listen to what kids have to say and then create a yoga lesson plan around it. AND…you’ll learn that your life is full of gifts & presents, beyond the ones that are wrapped in fancy paper, ribbons and bows.
Jodi would LOVE to hear your thoughts on this blog video, please leave a message and if you are inspired to share it, we’d love that too!
