Yogi Squad Empowering Resilient Kids in North Texas
At Yogi Squad, we believe every child deserves access to tools that build calm, confidence, and connection—no matter their zip code.
As a Fort Worth-based nonprofit, we bring yoga, mindfulness, and literacy into schools, parks, and homes—empowering children with lifelong skills to manage emotions, reduce anxiety, and thrive. Our programs are trauma-informed, developmentally appropriate, and designed to meet the needs of the whole child—socially, emotionally, and academically.
With your support this North Texas Giving Day, we can continue expanding our reach into the communities that need it most.
💛 How Your Gift Makes a Difference
🌱 Member Mondays – Where Giving Meets Growth
Our Member Mondays monthly donor program is at the heart of what we do. Donations fund all of Yogi Squad’s work in underserved communities—and in return, donor families receive access to a free afterschool kids yoga class held weekly at a centrally located Fort Worth park. Members also unlock exclusive access to our digital Brain Breaks collection, making mindfulness and movement practices accessible at home. It’s a win-win: your monthly support fuels our mission while providing affordable wellness options for your own family.
🏫 School Squads – Bringing Wellness Into the School Day
Our School Squad program places certified instructors directly into Title I elementary schools, delivering yoga and mindfulness sessions to entire student bodies—during the school day, at no cost to families. These joyful, movement-based sessions are paired with books and literacy themes, making social-emotional learning engaging and memorable. For many of these students, Yogi Squad is their only exposure to structured mental wellness tools.
☀️ Summer Enrichment Camps – Mindful Fun for Every Child
Our inclusive, trauma-sensitive Summer Enrichment Camps blend yoga, mindfulness, art, and literacy in creative, themed programming designed to help kids explore gratitude, resilience, empathy, and more. Open to children of all backgrounds, our camps create joyful spaces where kids connect with others, regulate emotions, and build self-awareness—all while having fun.
💻 Digital Resources – Wellness, Anywhere
We know access matters. That’s why we offer a robust collection of digital resources—free and low-cost—to families, educators, and schools. From our Mindful Moments full-year video curriculum to guided yoga and breathwork, read-alouds, and SEL tools, our digital library is accessible via our website and YouTube channel. These tools ensure that even children without in-person access can benefit from mindfulness education—anytime, anywhere.

Yogi Squad: Helping Kids Stress Less, Move More, and Thrive
Yogi Squad delivers evidence-based yoga and mindfulness programs that build resilience, emotional regulation, and physical strength in children.
What makes us unique is our strong foundation in education and our integration of literacy into every session. As former educators, we design developmentally aligned programs that combine movement, mindfulness, and books—creating engaging, well-rounded experiences that support the whole child.
Scientific research shows that yoga and mindfulness improve mental health, behavior, and academic performance in schools. Since 2021, North Texas Giving Day donors have helped us provide 300 free classes to more than 21,000 students and educators across local schools.
Each class gives kids the tools they need to feel better, focus better, and grow into confident, connected learners.
