Friendly Kids’ Yoga classes teach skills that help young people develop inner and outer friendliness.

We work on nervous system regulation, self-compassion, communication, and social skill development through playful physical movement (yoga!), mindfulness activities, creative projects, open conversation and plenty of fun free play, even for the older kiddos. We all need more play!

All classes blend structured curriculum and kid-directed play/project time.

Classes are taught by Ellen Olson-Brown, MEd, LCSW, and certified yoga instructor.

Small group classes are offered in person in Groton, MA.

I teach out of a dedicated space in my home designed for active and calm and creative activities.

Most classes are offered on a drop-in basis.

Sign up for the weeks that work for your family.

I invoice you at the end of each month, and you only pay for the classes your child attends.

(Payment for some special classes is due when registering)

I teach classes for preschoolers at local libraries.

These classes are geared toward kids ages 3-5, but we can usually include younger and older siblings. Please contact the libraries directly to sign up.

• My fall 2025 classes at the Groton Public Library have wrapped up, but I’ll be teaching there again soon. Check their website/calendar or ask the children’s room librarians for specific dates and sign-up information.
