Teaching Yoga & Mindfulness in the Early Childhood Classroom: Pre-K-Grade 2
August 7-9, 2020 Registration Coming Soon!
Our teacher training is innovative, hands-on, and interactive. We work together to explore creative movement and sequencing for children, appropriate classroom management strategies, understanding how different age groups learn most effectively, and how your unique skills and talents lend to creating a powerful and compassionate community.
We are a group of experienced educators and yogis who understand the intricacies of childhood development, school culture, and how to start a business in the growing yoga community. We are always looking to build our family of like-minded people and co-construct ideas and knowledge. If you have any questions at all regarding the training, please don’t hesitate to reach out - we’d love to hear from you!
