Sharing yoga with children is a unique and fulfilling challenge, that has the potential to bring great joy to both the teacher and the student.

Join one of the most professional and comprehensive Children’s Yoga Teacher Training programs available, and learn to teach a holistic class that uses all aspects of the yoga practice to meet children’s physical, emotional and social needs. Classes incorporate yoga and mindfulness activities that help children connect to themselves & their community, access the power of their breath, develop focus & concentration, find strength, balance and confidence through physical movement, recognize and regulate their own emotions, and learn how to nurture themselves through relaxation.

You will leave training with a deeper understanding of child development, the capacity and confidence to create lesson plans that meet children’s needs, and the knowledge to teach in a safe, engaging and compassionate way. We will address the challenges of teaching in school environments, as well as practical information about how to set up new classes, get insurance, talk to schools about yoga, and more.

LFY is a Yoga Alliance Certified School. Participation in this training qualifies for a Level One certificate, which can be applied to our longer Yoga Alliance Certification for Children’s Specialization (3 levels).
