Jennifer Cohen Interview:
#1. We first met you when you submitted a question to the podcast! So cool! When we chatted, we found out you are a pediatric physical therapist and teach yoga for kids and we wanted to learn more about what you do. Tell us a little bit about yourself.
#2. What do you think are some of the biggest benefits of kids doing yoga? What are the things you see the most?
#3. Yoga is so great for everyone. Do you see kids who are resistant to the idea? How do you advise parents to deal with this problem?
#4. When we chatted, you brought up this really fascinating topic of alignment and natural movement for babies. So, so interesting! Can you walk us through how you think about this?
#5. It makes so much sense that we create an unnatural, movement less environment for babies that get them set up for future problems. What are your best tips for parents?
#6. What are your thoughts on strollers, baby harnesses, shoes, and toys?
#7. Where can people learn more about you and get in touch with you?

OMG! I am so nervous to listen to it. I’m afraid I came off too serious 🙂
No way! You sound fantastic and smart 🙂 But it’s hard for me to listen to myself as well!
I totally get it. Just about to email you about this weekend. Hope you had an amazing trip!
