We need to understand the physiology of our Nervous system to really ‘GET’ why YOGA can help calm and balance it.

Just telling your TEEN STUDENTS that his pose calms and this pose energises is not really enough.

Teach them about their nervous system, then they understand and appreciate why the postures or breathing exercises work - this is the REAL POWER behind our LGY TEEN - Mind & Body classes and our TEACHER TRAININGS …….. knowledge is power for both student and teacher!

If you are looking for a class for your teen, are a school looking for a teacher to visit your school then head to our website or get in touch. (See profile or https://www.theyogapractice.org/qualified-instructors).

If you are wishing to teach TEENS yoga then do have a look at our course the link is in the 1st comment (also in profile). SIGN UP FOR ANY OFFERS

Our Kids & Teen Yoga Teacher Training courses have been running since 2012!

They are so experiential that you will have taught your first class as part of the course!

Our course is now using a hybrid mix on recorded modules (see reel) and LIVE sessions. The LIVE sessions can be ONLINE LIVE or IN-PERSON LIVE.

Mixing age groups 3-5yrs & 5-8yrs may work on a short term basis but won’t if you are hoping to run long term classes!

At Little Greene Yoga we have 3 separate syllabus and 3 individual development programmes for each age group. We have a 3-5yrs, 5-8yr, 8-12yr & Teen syllabus. Our more challenging kids syllabus for the 8-12yr olds, is what keeps children attending classes right up until the TEEN years.
This is what’s missing in most kids programmes…….. something fun yet more challenging than the usual kiddy yoga……..

Our qualified instructors retain students from the ages of 3-18yrs……..as does our course director Veronica Greene who still teaches daily classes privately and in schools. This is why our courses are always up to date with new movement and neuro development techniques!

If you’re struggling retaining students or want to learn how to become a Kids Yoga Teacher then take a look at our different syllabus and then arrange a call with us.

See profile for links or head to the first comment for direct link.

WHY ARE SO MANY SCHOOL TEACHERS becoming KIDS & TEEN YOGA TEACHERS?

Because they’re BURNED OUT!

Because CLASSROOMS are OVERWHELMED!

Because EMOTIONAL REGULATION isn’t a “nice-to-have” — it’s ESSENTIAL
And because what we’ve been doing ISN’T WORKING ANYMORE.

We help teachers:

✨ Regulate behaviour through movement
✨ Train as certified Kids/Teen Yoga Instructors
✨ Integrate real nervous system strategies into the school day

The results?
✨ CALMER CLASSROOMS ✨
✨ RENEWED EDUCATORE✨

⭐️ class control for the different stages (easy when you use our techniques)

The MOST IMPORTANT POINT we need to know to teach kids yoga is how a pose changes their ENERGY LEVELS.

Forward bends calming, backbends energising ………..although often it’s not what you do it’s the way that you do it!



HOW TO CALM THE POSTURES IN THE VIDEO DOWN!

1. pose 1 - kicking donkey
Slow it right down. One leg up at a time and then nice slow kick


2. Pose 2 - crab (for younger years)
Again slow down, use precision. “Keep your bottom up”. Use phrases to synchronise “step, together, step, together”


3. Pose 3 - gorilla
Tell them it’s like a slow motion movie, even the sounds! Sounds are just exhalations of breath ……. Make them longer and we breath out slower, calming our nervous system


Ours Kids & Teen Yoga Teacher Trainings cover this for all age groups! See https://www.TheYogaPractice.org/kids-teen-yoga-teacher-training

FRIDAY TIP!

This helps to mature our nervous system.

We’re all born with a startle reflex called ‘the Moro Reflex’.

It’s there to keep us safe and is triggered when we get a fright - loud noise, movement in range of vision or a feeling of falling (being dropped).

It’s part of our sympathetic nervous system… our fight or flight response, and should start to mature around 4 months ( the technical term is ‘integrate’).

Even if it does ‘integrate’, it can re-emerge due to trauma - physical or emotional Trauma.

The above exercise is part of a suite of exercises which can help integrate this response. This is a progression as an easier variation can be done on lying on the floor, for those with coordination& balance issues!

HOW TO USE?

For younger kids (3-8yrs) integrate it into a story ...

1️⃣ educational - a star doesn’t exist and then bursts into life to shine ( I love this as it’s just like us when we develop our nervous system)

2️⃣ could be hiding on someone and jumping out to give them a surprise

For the older kids 8-12yr olds

3️⃣ use it as part of a warmup up game. Could then add our yoga jacks sequence

This helps our nervous system mature, so we become more resilient.

In our Little Greene Yoga method, we call this “shooting star”.

Give it a go and let us know how you get on.

💥Our YOUNG are struggling!

💥Our TEACHERS are struggling!

💥Our HEALTH SERVICE is struggling!

Additional Supports Needs teachers are in demand and most classroom teachers are over stressed coping with so many diverse needs.

Many of todays current issues can be dramatically helped by the correct movement patterns to help connect their brain. Our Yoga method can help at any time and any age & stage as a private class or in schools!

Functional movement to help connect the brain and bring balance. Also so many techniques to help manage and help children feel safe & secure and make teaching easier.

There are just a couple of spaces left in the EACH OF THE COURSES BUT PLACES GO FAST! Get in touch quick…..promise you’ll not regret it.

Our courses are so successful as we keep numbers small and work with each individual to help develop their teaching style.
Being part of a large crowd will not turn you into a successful teacher! Neither will hiding at the back of the room and hoping you’re not asked put yourself out there!

At Little Greene Yoga we keep our training courses small so we can nurture everyone of you to be the ‘best of the best!’

You’re making an investment by enrolling on a course so we want you to make a success of your new endeavour and grow your investment.

Want to know more about this weekend’s course? Send us a DM and we’ll let you know all the details but be quick!

Look at these faces - fully engaged and in the moment!
This is what children’s yoga is all about - connection, confidence & community.

Here is one of my recent graduates teaching from the heart, surrounded by children hanging on to every word.

Moments like this remind me why we do what we do. ✨

At Little Greene Yoga, our instructors are trained to the highest standards.

They earn their qualification only after successfully passing both a practical and a written exam - because supporting children’s physical, emotional & mental development is one of the most important responsibilities anyone can take on.

Our courses are intentionally different.

For too long, many trainings taught children the way they teach adults -using postures that are unsafe for growing bodies, or packing 50 trainees into a room where no one ever actually gets to teach, let alone work with children.

At LGY, we keep our numbers small.
You learn the postures first, then join us LIVE to learn how to teach - lesson planning, class control, safe sequencing, child development & of course, guided practice teaching.

We build your confidence step by step, preparing you to deliver a full children’s class for your final exam.

Because when teachers feel confident, supported, and inspired… they pass that forward.......And the children flourish. 💛
