What makes our training different… at Class Yoga we raise the bar in teaching yoga to children. We don’t shy away from what yoga truly is, by covering it up with stories and characters, or with an overload of songs and games.

We know firsthand that yoga doesn’t need to be ‘fluffed up’ for children, and that they benefit more from a real yoga experience.

We’ll teach you how you can teach authentic yoga to children, that’s engaging and appropriate for them in that moment - and has them continually wanting more!   

Reasons to teach #realyogaforkids with the Class Yoga Method:

  • Story telling takes attention outward, when yoga has the potential to turn us inward. Let's give children the time they really need to be quiet, go inside and be self-aware. 

  • Too much dumbing down of yoga can feel patronising to many children. Let’s show them the respect they want, whilst remaining playful and age-appropriate. 

  • If we over plan a yoga sequence, then we are restricting what we offer. We have no way of knowing what the children need, before we see them. We’ll teach you how you can be prepared to teach the children what will most benefit them. 

You can be a calm, confident and compassionate children’s yoga teacher!

The Class Yoga CYTT is designed and taught by Helen Clare, and is a comprehensive, 60 hour Yoga Alliance Professionals accredited, specialist training - now taught as a 5 week online course.

It’s a culmination of Helen’s 11 plus years of experience in teaching yoga to young people and adults, and provides you with the knowledge, skills, practice and confidence to teach appropriate, effective, safe, fun and engaging yoga and mindfulness to children ages 4 to 12.  

By the end of the course you will:

  • Feel more than confident to teach a group children's yoga class

  • Know how to plan, effectively structure and intuitively modify a class, appropriate to the kids

  • Have a wealth of knowledge and a vast toolkit to draw upon, setting you up for being an excellent kids yoga teacher

Prerequisites

We just require that you have at least one year’s personal yoga experience before taking this training course. We must first work on ourselves, before we can hope to help others!

The Class Yoga Online Training Course Experience

Led over 5 weeks, each week of the Class Yoga Online Training you are given access to a new online module of pre-recorded videos, tasks and an assessment. You are expected to complete the module at your own pace (up to 4 hours), within that given week, before the weekend live training session. 

Each week you will need to attend two live online training sessions, held via Zoom: 1 hour mid-week and 3 hours at the weekend, throughout the course. There is a choice of two times for the mid-week session. You must attend each session, and complete the week’s study by the weekend.

In this way, you can fit the training around ‘normal life’ and still be held accountable for making time and completing the course within the time frame! 

Summary: up to 4 hours pre-recorded content, plus assessment and 4 hours live online training to complete/ attend, each week for 5 weeks.

Upcoming Dates!

These are the dates and times of the live training sessions that you must attend, in addition to completing the online modules each week.

Our graduate teaching tribe is doing amazing things! 

“Since attending the Class Yoga TT I have successfully taught 17 3-4yr old children on a weekly basis in a Pre-school setting. This has been highly rewarding and, I feel, has got my kids yoga teaching off to a flying start! I am now excited to start teaching an online Saturday morning Yoga Club for primary aged children!” Hilly Kemp, yoga teacher

"The Class Yoga training was packed with information and techniques, which gave me loads of confidence and clear guidance on how to teach yoga and mindfulness to children. I set up Yogart Sessions last year, providing yoga and art workshops that offer an experience to practise yoga and meditation through the arts. Since completing the course, Yogart Sessions has been working in various schools around Cornwall, teaching children techniques that help them relax, focus and build confidence in preparation for exams. I also run yoga after school clubs and PE sessions for children from reception to Year 6. It has been incredible to see the impact these sessions have on children’s ability to follow instruction, calm themselves down and get in touch with and express how they feel! It has been a truly humbling experience." Abi Wood, school teacher and yoga teacher

“After finishing the Class Yoga Kids Training course, I was keen to get started in school straight away, so letters went home to explain the benefits!  It was a hit from the start, and being a boy heavy Year 5 group, it was great to see their involvement in everything we did. We had a session a week, which really helped develop my confidence and practise keeping the flow of the lessons going. My super parallel class teacher was fully on board and I taught her class a couple of sessions too. Some children began asking when the next session was! It was also nice to see girls, who were slightly reluctant to join in team sports lessons, really enjoying it and taking part.Thank you to Helen and Class Yoga for starting me on this new journey.” Amanda Simons, Primary school teacher

“After an amazing experience on the Class Yoga Training, I started teaching yoga to my class at least twice a week, alongside using the Class Yoga videos. I’ve also been teaching other classes in school and got the rest of staff on board with doing your daily yoga videos. It’s had a transformative effect on the school as a whole and has clearly boosted the confidence, concentration and self-esteem of many individuals. Our school, Camelford have now won the Physical Activity, Health and Wellbeing Time 2 Move Ambition 2018, and are shortlisted for CAPH Time 2 Move Primary School of the Year Award, and the introduction of yoga across the school absolutely contributed to that.” Arran Langdon, Primary school teacher

About Helen Clare 

Hi, I’m Helen! I’ve been practising yoga since I was 15 and teaching yoga to people aged 2 to 72, for over 11 years now! In the same year that I completed my first yoga Teacher Training course, I also started my Primary PGCE. So, naturally, as soon as I was in the classroom I started sharing yoga with my kids! 

Over the first two years of my full time teaching career I was able to see what worked and what didn’t, in terms of offering the most benefit to the children. I then began teaching yoga all over my home county of Cornwall, sharing my method (and the method I can teach you!). I founded Class Yoga in 2016 to train more teachers and reach more children across the UK, and now online globally!

 If this course is right for you, I can’t wait to welcome you in… You'll learn the proven teaching technique that I’ve developed over my career, an abundance of practical skills and the knowledge and theory behind what we do, to build upon a passion and motivation that will drive you to share the benefits of yoga with kids and young people!
