In Washington, at D.C.'s Sixth and I Synagogue, toddlers are taking their first steps, attending their first services and singing their first Jewish prayers, all while doing... yoga?
The program isn't alone. Jewish Yoga programs are popping up across the country from Washington DC to Sacramento, CA.
It's an interesting blend of Eastern Philosophy, Judaism, and exercise. Andrew Hiller examines and joins in on one routine that is designed for Jewish toddlers who are learning to stretch and pose even as they learn their first steps.
