Yoga In The Park

Veenu is a yoga instructor brought from India by the Indian Embassy of Stockholm to spread the yoga practice in Sweden.  We are lucky in that she will be joining us once a week to teach the children yoga.  This particular week, the peacocks and flamingos participated in yoga in the park.  The children were very attentive and determined to try all of the poses.
