The youngsters seemed to especially enjoy the crab pose.

At the end, as they reflected on the class together, many said their favorite pose was candlestick.

Overall, the yoga class seemed pretty successful. "I feel like a god now," Dylan said, when asked about how he felt after the class. We're not entirely sure what he means, but it sounds a lot like thriving.
