Cosmic Kids YogaThis YouTube channel with perhaps the most cheery yoga instructor on the interwebs, Jaime, incorporates classic yoga poses with a little bit of in-place cardio and other physical activity. Think warrior pose, but pretending you’re surfing and dodging fish (along with the sing-a-long bridge from the Surfaris “Wipe Out”).
