This 95 hour programme offers a comprehensive, thorough, and experiential training in facilitating yoga and mindfulness to children, young people, and their families. The course is carefully designed to ensure participants can plan, structure and deliver sessions, with skill, integrity and authenticity.
The course covers the physical and philosophical aspects of yoga - including movement, breath, meditation, deep rest, sound, the subtle body, and the ethical framework within the 8 Limbs of Yoga. The course also draws on varied sources from within holistic child development, to psychotherapeutic principles, to create a curriculum that is rich, fun and enlightening.
The programme is open to professionals already working with children, including school teachers and other school roles, social workers, child therapists, etc. It is open to yoga teachers, or experienced yoga practitioners, and we are also opening this programme to parents or grandparents, wishing to share these practices with the children in their lives.
At least 6 months experience of yoga is required before the start of the course (apply now for the Satyam Foundation Programme, for a comprehensive introduction to yoga).
Participants will emerge from this training with the knowledge and the tools to facilitate engaging, fun, uplifting and deep sessions for children, young people and families, whether that be in their communities, within school or other professional environments or in their own homes. Professionals will be able to integrate the tools into existing frameworks when working with children.
