Kendama (Grades 3-5)


After School Youth Classes / Northrop -
After School Youth Enrichment Winter 2025

Kendama is a growing professional sport in the world with Minneapolis being a hub for some of the best players in the world. Our program merges the fun and excitement of Kendama play with the importance of mindful awareness and emotional regulation.

Our program teaches students basic techniques in mindful breathing designed to help reduce stress, anger and anxiety. The program also focuses on helping students practice emotional awareness and growth mindset through journaling, reflection and through play with kendama in a series of progressively harder challenges and games. Students can expect to be active and moving during our class. No prior kendama experience is necessary! Students will receive a Kendama to take home and practice.
