Over the years, I’ve had countless teachers and #kidsyogateachers share their frustrations with me that students aren’t engaged during yoga despite all they’re doing to make classes fun and relevant! But, just because a student isn’t engaged in the way we want them to be, it doesn’t mean they aren’t learning or absorbing what we’re teaching. Huh? How’s this possible? Watch the reel to find out how I know this! #yogainclassroomsandschools #yogainclassrooms #yogainschools

Many people come to yoga for healing. Sometimes they will know they need healing, like Faraji did. Other times they won't be aware of how much they are carrying in their body. They may not know how much healing they can do either. Our yoga teacher training programs are all based on trauma-informed methodology including the lens of social justice. We teach teachers how to welcome what is arising for their students. And how to teach their students to welcome their own journey with courage and kindness.

Change of School Anxiety? How Yoga Can Help As the end of the school year approaches, I like to address ‘Change of School’ as an important topic of reflection in my Children Yoga classes (ranging Y1 to Y6, so covering 2 big school changes, but also moving up to a new class, change of routines and teachers). I tell the story (all in Yoga poses of course) of a little girl whose family has just moved house from a flat.... I will keep the suspense as to what she finds there but this is a super story to talk about -the stories that run up our minds -how our brains wanders to find explanations to mysteries -the rising anxiety leading to not thinking about anything else (the mind shrinks literally) -it is okay to be scared of new environment and big changes: very natural indeed! -how we can become aware, and accepting of the story, and trust that it can pass. -talk to trusting carers and parents to gain explanations https://lnkd.in/e6sdEQbV By discussing how our character feels, and acting it out in our poses, finding a calming breath, talking to each other about it, we are truly making yoga experiential and rehearsing scenarios that children are facing at the end of school and ahead of September. You TOO can Teach Yoga and Mindfulness to Children https://lnkd.in/e-VmrCk7 #YogaForChildren #YogaEducation #childrenyoga #yogaforchildren#schoolleaders#teachers #wellbeing #teaching #schools #headteacher #headteachers
