Yoga Fun with Pokey Totem and Susky!

07/15/2016

Today I had the opportunity to do yoga with some campers from Pokey Totem and Susky. While some of the girls had done yoga before, for a lot of them it was trying something new at camp! It was a hot day at Frost Valley, so we took the opportunity to cool off in the shade and practice balancing and stretching poses. The favorite pose for the campers was ‘tree pose’, featured in the photo above! More relaxed activities like yoga are a great way for campers to unwind and cool off, when most of the day is action packed. We’re looking forward to a beautiful weekend before the start of our all camp activity Olympix!
