Resumo: Introduction: Yoga is a holistic system of varied mind-body practices that can be used to improve mental and physical health andit has been utilized in a variety of contexts and situations. Educators and schools are looking to include yoga as a cost-effective,evidence-based component of urgently needed wellness programs for their students. Objectives. The primary goal of this study was tosystematically examine the available literature for yoga interventions exclusively in school settings, exploring the evidence of yoga-based interventions on academic, cognitive, and psychosocial benefits. Methods. An extensive search was conducted for studiespublished between 1980 and October 31, 2014 (PubMed, PsycInfo, Embase, ISI, and the Cochrane Library). Effect size analysis,through standardized mean difference and Hedges’g, allowed for the comparison between experimental conditions. Results andConclusions. Nine randomized control trials met criteria for inclusion in this review. Effect size was found for mood indicators,tension and anxiety in the POMS scale, self-esteem, and memory when the yoga groups were compared to control. Future research requires greater standardization and suitability of yoga interventions for children.
