1:22
oh my goodness this is becoming quite a
1:24
good habit wouldn't you say
1:27
every wednesday to do this really fun
1:29
yoga together now
1:31
again my name is heather kamelan are you
1:33
ready to have fun
1:34
are you ready to jump are you ready to
1:37
sit
1:38
are you ready to breathe we're going to
1:41
do all those things
1:42
so let's start so this is usually what
1:45
we do is that we start
1:46
with some big movement you know me i
1:49
like to get my heart going
1:51
boom boom boom boom so are you ready to
1:54
do some
1:54
big movement all right we're going to do
1:57
some
1:58
jumping and basically what i want you to
2:01
do
2:01
is i want you to have your legs apart
2:03
like that
2:04
so if your legs are together looks like
2:06
this that's closed
2:08
and if your legs are open looks like
2:09
this right okay
2:11
so now what i want you to do is i want
2:12
you to bend your knees
2:14
that's right bend your knees and i want
2:16
you to touch the ground so it looks like
2:19
a frog
2:20
so you can drum like the frog like that
2:23
and then you can come up high high high
2:26
and touch
2:27
up like that so the idea is to squat
2:30
down and reach up
2:33
okay and this is going to do that ten
2:36
times and we are going to then do
2:39
something different so you ready
2:41
okay we're going to do this together
2:42
let's count ready one
2:45

2:58
years old
2:59
you might be four years old you might be
3:01

3:03

3:06
old were you
3:07
whatever age you are we can enjoy this
3:10
and have a lot of fun
3:12
so feel your heart it should be getting
3:15
going
3:16
little boom boom
3:20
yeah i have a drum around here somewhere
3:22
but all i have to do is feel my own
3:24
heart and that's my drum too
3:26
all right we're going to do a little bit
3:28
more so this one is where we're going to
3:30
again go down like this
3:32
now pretend there's a bunch of paint
3:34
okay and you have to tell me what is
3:35
your favorite color
3:37
so what is your favorite color shout it
3:38
out ah ha
3:41
okay so get that color get it get it
3:44
and now we're going to reach up and
3:46
we're going to paint a rainbow in the
3:48
sky so paint the rainbow
3:51
yeah like that now come down the other
3:53
side now you're going to get a different
3:54
color
3:55
if you have two favorite colors or more
3:57
get all of those
3:59
okay and now go the other way and
4:01
stretch as
4:02
high as you can so you can touch the
4:04
whole sky rainbow
4:06
and wash the sky with all of your
4:09

14:23
up and here we are
14:26
all right sometimes the rhymes come in
14:29
