Fort Worth tykes will be able to practice yoga within a dedicated space soon when a new establishment opens, one from a native who locals already love.
Fort Worth's first children's yoga studio — Nanda Yoga — is aiming for a February 2020 opening, according to a press release. Nanda Yoga has held pop-up events for several years, and after much demand, a brick-and-mortar location will open inside Shop Small's The Collective at 3608 Pershing Ave. in the Cultural District.

Nanda Yoga will be open Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., and will offer 25 classes per week crafted with developmental needs of specific age groups in mind.
Nanda Yoga also plans for a variety of other amenities, such as a “mindful gift boutique,” dedicated play studio and flex space, seasonal camps, kids nights out, lecture series and more.
“Bringing a dedicated children’s yoga studio to Fort Worth has been a lifelong dream of mine,” said Kate Murphy, owner and founder of Nanda Yoga, in the release. “Nanda Yoga will be a place where families and children can build strength, flexibility, coordination, and body awareness through playful yoga poses, games, stories, mindfulness, art, music, and sensory activities, all in a non-competitive, inclusive and positive environment.”
