Welcome to LiteracyYoga

A calm, joyful way to help children fall in love with reading

You’re here because you believe—like we do—that reading is more than a skill. It’s a state of being.

LiteracyYoga is a simple, classroom-friendly approach that blends gentle movement, breath, and reading to help students regulate their bodies, focus their minds, and engage more deeply with books. It’s not about perfect poses or adding one more thing to your day—it’s about helping children feel settled, safe, and ready to read.

Through our partnerships, you’re gaining access to tools designed specifically for real classrooms, real schedules, and real kids.

Sign up or contact us to recieve:

  • Short, easy LiteracyYoga practices you can use before, during, or after reading time
  • Movement-based strategies that support attention, comprehension, and stamina
  • A trauma-aware, inclusive approach that meets students exactly where they are
  • Ideas that work whether you have 2 minutes or 20

You don’t need yoga experience. You don’t need special equipment.
You just need children—and books.

Thank you for being the kind of teacher who understands that when we help kids feel good in their bodies, reading becomes something they want to do—not something they’re pushed to do.

We’re so glad you’re here.
Let’s help kids read with their whole selves. 💛
