Montessori school adds yoga

Yoga is not just for adults. One local school is embracing yoga as a part of an expanding curriculum.

Montessori Academy at Belmont Greene in Ashburn includes yoga as part of its curriculum for students 5 and older. Once a week the students roll out their mats and participate in a 30-minute yoga class.

The school says students who practice yoga can benefit from improved self-esteem, increased body control and awareness, increased flexibility and decreased anxiety.
