In the 45-minute Sunday morning class, kids will practice traditional yoga, except to them they’ll roar like a lion, hop like a bunny, stretch like a giraffe, and sit like a dog.

• The Fern Tree Spa at the Half Moon resort in Jamaica www.halfmoon.com has two programs for yoga aficionados. The Yoga Retreat Day includes one morning and evening yoga session, a Pranajama workshop to teach proper breath control, and a meditation session. The Ultimate Yoga Escape package is great for travellers who want a little bit of everything, and includes two daily yoga classes, a personal consultation with a spa expert, an hour-long massage, and access to the spa’s Meditation Labyrinth.
