Dana Santas teaches her son Luke, left, and his best friend, Nolan Joyner, the cobbler's pose.

The boys work on their breathing technique. "Rib riding" reinforces proper breathing biomechanics.

Santas developed "peace palm exhaling" to help kids prone to panic attacks or tantrums.

Santas, Luke and Nolan stand in happy hopping tree pose, which improves balance, coordination and movement control.

The pose Santas calls "dog at the fire hydrant" usually results in a lot of giggling.

Imagining their yoga mats as magic carpets helps the boys learn mindfulness.
