Testimonial Time:

We have found that our children have responded really well to the virtual teacher and have a real connection with them. The portal is really easy to use and user friendly. All of the sessions are easy to access. We have found the sound quality good even in a school hall and we were impressed by the sharpness of the sessions on a interactive whiteboard.

We were able to slot the sessions into our timetable with ease, especially as we had made SMEH a priority in our school returning from COVID. The programme has allowed us to identify those children who were super anxious. Our teachers have seen greater flexibility in our pupils, and their ability to sit and listen, along with concentration in the class room has improved greatly.

We purchased this programme using sports premium money, but it is so much more than sports! It is also hitting areas of mindfulness and SEMH within our school. It has been more than worth the money!

I feel that we are getting back on track as a school and YogaBugs has been a massive part of that!

FACT: The NHS is only able to support about 40% of the children and young people in need of mental health services, leaving a whopping 60% unable to get the help they need.

Testimonial time:

The children love YogaBugs virtual and follow the process really well with it being a teacher on the screen. We have found that when doing the sessions, the children are not as reliant on the staff, which gives both the staff and pupils a short break.

We have found the school portal really easy to use, and it is nicely signposted. With a cinematic approach. We like that the relaxation and warm up sessions are separate from the main classes on the portal because it allows us to utilise them throughout the day. The relaxation sessions are a great way to refocus the children when they need it at different times of the day. The sun salutation is great for stretching and our school physio has found this really helpful with our children, and we have seen an improvement in flexibility.

We have seen concentration improve, more of our children can follow the classes now from when we first began them. Concentration has improved in the classroom since using these sessions, which therefore is improving behaviour.
This programme can be embedded into the curriculum which makes it sustainable for the school. We did not find the programme overpriced and it has a lot of content, not only for the children but our staff as well! The fact that the programme has an area which focussing on the parents was a positive to us purchasing the programme.

Cat pose provides numerous benefits, including increasing spinal flexibility, relieving tension in the back and neck, and strengthening arms, wrists, and shoulders. It also massages abdominal organs, potentially improving digestion and toning abdominal muscles. Furthermore, this gentle movement can calm the mind, improve blood circulation, and enhance body awareness and posture!

How to Perform Cat Pose
Start in Tabletop Position: On your hands and knees, ensure your wrists are directly under your shoulders and your knees are directly under your hips.

Begin to Exhale: As you exhale, draw your belly in towards your spine.

Round Your Back: Push your hands into the mat and round your upper back up toward the ceiling, creating a dome shape.

Tuck Your Chin: Release the crown of your head, bringing your chin towards your chest.

Hold and Release: You should feel a stretch in your upper back and between your shoulder blades. Inhale and return to Cow Pose, dropping your belly and lifting your gaze, then repeat the sequence for several rounds.

Ever thought yoga was just a slow, meditative practice? A recent meta-analysis of 30 randomized controlled trials from around the globe reveals a compelling sleep hack: high-intensity yoga outperforms walking, resistance training, aerobic exercise, and even Tai Chi in improving sleep, especially for people dealing with sleep disturbances
https://www.sciencealert.com/one-form-of-exercise-improves-sleep-the-most-scientists-say

** Here’s what the study found:**

Just under 30 minutes, twice weekly of high-intensity yoga led to the most significant sleep improvements across diverse age groups

Walking came in second, followed by resistance workouts

Positive changes in sleep could emerge in as few as 8 to 10 weeks

Interestingly, an earlier 2023 meta-analysis had pointed to “aerobic or moderate-intensity” exercise—but this newer research underscores yoga’s standout impact

** Why this matters:**

High-intensity yoga blends both physical movement and breath-control, engaging both body and nervous system in a way that may promote deep, restorative sleep patterns.

It’s time-efficient, accessible (no fancy gym required), and backed by solid evidence—making it especially appealing for busy professionals and wellness-focused teams.

What if we rethought our wellness routines? Could a couple of brisk yoga sessions each week be the productivity (and sleep) game-changer we didn’t know we needed?

Would love to hear how you’re tackling sleep—and whether this might be the tweak worth trying.
