My style
What I can offer
What I can offer
I deliver a fun Yoga session in order to keep children engaged. With young children I use a large number of props and animal friends which they love. My sessions are structured and can be designed to fit in with specific class themes or enrichment weeks. I have a large number of lesson plan ideas on many topics (e.g. health and fitness, the seasons, events and holidays, countries of the world and many more).
Yoga develops concentration and helps to bring the awareness out of the busy mind into the body. Breathing exercises can be used to reduce anxiety levels and reduce the impact of stress on the body and mind. Yoga also improves sleep and awareness of our own range of emotional states. As it is a non-competitive form of exercises, Yoga boosts self confidence. Yoga also increases a child's sense of wellbeing whilst preparing them to manage themselves through exams and other stressful times. Teachers notice improvements in behavior.
