My daughter visited Aerial Yoga for a Girl Scout Event and Loved It!! She talked about it all the way home and continues to talk about her great experience.

I set up an event for my Daisy Girl Scout troop, and it was wonderful. Girls walked in nervous and unsure, and they walked out on cloud nine feeling confident and proud. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish.

I have worked with Tracy for the past seven years and have watched her use her skills as a psychologist helping children with autism, anxiety and ADHD. Tracy has worked with early childhood age children with great success. Tracy has also been very successful with older children ranging from elementary school age through high school. Tracy’s creative ways of working with children meet both their sensory and cognitive needs. She is always there to answer questions or make suggestions when a situation arises. Tracy understands the long-term commitment it takes to help children become successful in the world.

- Dr. Thomas K. Lawson, Director of Special Education

My daughter has been going to classes at Mindful Child for about 10 months. She also attends private sessions with Dr. Tracy. She loves going to classes, and also her private sessions. My daughter’s confidence has improved so much, it has been life changing for us. I’m so thankful to have found a wonderful professional, who truly cares about helping children.

Dr. Tracy Daniel does an excellent job of teaching children aerial yoga and mindfulness. Tracy takes the utmost care to make sure her facility is clean and safe with properly secured yoga hammocks and a cushioned floor. She makes sure each class is staffed so each child has a helping hand and encouragement when needed. Each group lesson is thought out to provide a variety of activities to stimulate physical and mental growth in each child.

- Parent

I have attended Dr Tracy’s Level 1 and 2 Mindful Child Yoga Teacher Training and they were both phenomenal! The knowledge she brings with how to incorporate mindfulness and yoga with kids and teens is amazing and truly life changing for students and teachers both. She is changing our world one breath and yoga pose at a time! I’m truly grateful for all she has taught me!

- K. Shipley, Physical Therapist

My preschool classroom has been lucky enough to have Tracy Daniel visit multiple times and demonstrate her yoga skills with the children. Each time she has visited, she has brought innovative yoga sequences that are fun and teach body awareness skills to the children and teachers. She has been extremely patient and always explains the moves in simple ways. The children are excited to share what they have learned with their families and they talk about Tracy’s visits for days!

- L. Cramer, Preschool Teacher

Our son, Jack, is 10 years old and has been diagnosed with ADHD, OCD, anxiety and autism for 8 years. Tracy does a great job of incorporating a sensory therapy session with fun yoga poses. Jack started off with a yoga schedule board and has steadily improved his poses and strength to where now he can incorporate yoga into a fun story time flow. She shares her routine with us, so we can continue to work on yoga at home as well. Tracy makes yoga fun for Jack and he loves working with her every week. Since working with Tracy, Jack’s focus and anxiety have drastically improved. Jack’s school has even started incorporating yoga into their routines, as a result of the improvements they’ve seen in Jack. We highly recommend Tracy’s services!

- Happy Parent

I love that Mindful Child teaches my kids the importance of taking care of their brains along with their bodies. The mindfulness skills they are learning will serve them well throughout their lives.

Helpful Tips

What should my child wear?: Please make sure to remove all jewelry, though studded earrings are fine. Children should wear comfortable clothing that’s easy to move in, without any snaps, zips, or exposed buckles. They should also wear long pants to keep their skin protected while they move in the hammock, like yoga pants, cotton pants, or leggings.
What should we bring to your children's summer camp in Prairie Village?: You’ll only need to bring a water bottle to their camp. Since we use padded flooring, they won’t need a yoga mat.
How soon should we enroll in camps?: Camp size is limited for high-quality instruction and safety. We recommend that parents enroll their children in the camps as soon as they know that their child is interested. If the camp is full, then we can put your child on the waitlist.
