Yoga can help resolve Trauma because it teaches you that the relationship you have with sensations in your body can change. It is agency, empowerment of body that can then lead to agency and empowerment of mind. Powerful stuff Yoga.

I love teaching a Children Yoga Club after school on a Friday. I get to greet the children by saying: Welcome to Yoga, what a lovely way to start your week-end. You can be proud of taking care of yourself, your body, your mind and your wellbeing'
Isn't it better than thinking that this is the last activity in school at the end of a long week?!

Just what we are working on at the moment in our underlying theme: what we say to ourselves about what we do and how we say it matters. It can change your perception, your thoughts, and how you feel. Very important right ?

I also get to say at the end ' Welldone for taking care of yourself today and Have a great week-end!'

Deepening Trust and Self-Care in Children Yoga Classes this Summer Term

By this stage in the year, strong relationships and trust have blossomed between teachers and pupils. That’s why our Summer Term theme of Self-Care & Stress Management is so impactful. It builds beautifully on the themes introduced earlier in the year and supports children as they begin to wind down and reflect.

Our sessions focus on helping children understand that our emotions are not us, that perception is everything, and that they can practice healthy coping tools they can take beyond the classroom.
One key takeaway we share with children:

“If you’re not sure what’s expected of you—ask! It’s not weakness, it’s smart. Clarity helps you feel supported while staying independent.”

Wherever you are on your teaching journey—seasoned or in training—this is a beautiful time to make a difference. To find out more about Yogamoo Surrey, do reach out. If you are a local school, we would love to hear from you

The Awe Moment, is an evidence-based practice (dixit The Week Junior, June 2025) that Yoga Teachers may know as Beauty Hunting, Beauty Glimpse, or Seeking Delight, all part of such practices called 'Heartfulness' by Jon Kabaz Zinn.

In our Yogamoo Children Yoga classes this week in primary schools, first time back after Half-Term, we took the opportunity to recall and share (optional) an inspiring moment from our break that made us feel good. Ideally one that money can't buy however food was allowed if we could focus on being grateful for the treat. We took Three Breaths, and smiled at the recall of the pleasure experienced. Children said that they felt more relaxed and calmer afterwards. Feel Good moments at different times of the day are a great way to counter stress and refill our tank.

🌟 Are you a yoga teacher looking to inspire the next generation? 🌟

We’re always updating our Children’s Yoga Teacher Training with fresh tools and classroom-tested techniques—because working with children requires flexibility, creativity, and heart 💛

Here’s what’s new on the Yogamoo training platform this month:

🧠 Mood Meter Magic
We’ve added new content to our Emotional Awareness module, including how to use the Mood Meter to help children understand their feelings. One 6-year-old recently explained it better than most adults—proof that these tools really work!

🗣️ Compassionate Language Poster
A new printable poster, Wellbeing Classroom Strategies, is now available. It reminds us how powerful our words can be when helping a dysregulated child feel safe and supported.

🎲 Yoga Games Audio Bonus
We’ve added a recording of our favourite yoga games—perfect for engaging groups during school sessions or workshops. Fun AND regulation in one go!

Today my colleague and I were invited to speak at Three Bridges primary school in Three Bridges, Crawley to introduce the new Yoga After School club to the junior and infant school children.

20mins is all we needed to tell the children what happens in our Yoga classes. This includes practical details such as where the class is, what the mats lay-out is and how many spaces we have in the class.
We also told them a little bit about the different sections in the class with examples as to what this means. We had time for a Mindfulness exercise and a Yoga game demonstration.

Thanks to the children and school staff for having us today. Parents do look out for the booking link from your school. 🙏

Great training about 'How to help Children and young people regulate to overcome stress, anxiety & overwhelm'. Thanks to Kids Inpire for this.
It is great to see so many primary school teachers and therapists wanting to train further to provide the right kind of support to children in the classroom. We are reminded of increased needs in supporting children individually because they just need a bit more time, guidance, and understanding to fit in. Time and Funding are equally tight in these matters.

At Yogamoo, we are offering short therapeutic sessions to small groups, with techniques learnt from Years of teaching yoga and mindfulness to children on primary schools, and training staff. The exercises are 'a practice', using somatics (body and breath) as tools to calm, focus, connect or energise.
'It does not have to be therapy to be therapeutic' is a quote that was shared on last nights' training.

In this interview by SoOnline Radio, I talk about my experience joining the Enterpreneur Academy 24/25 course offered by Reigate and Banstead Economy Prosperity Team. It has helped me develop clarity to map out our expansion as a Children Yoga and Mindfulness school.

As a result, and since this interview, I have already grown my team of professional teachers five fold in the last 4 weeks and doubled our presence in schools. 👏

Stepping Out of My Comfort Zone – Lessons from Two Competitions in Four Days

This past week, I found myself doing something I hadn’t done in a long time—competing. Not once, but twice in just four days. In two very different areas.

Beyond the nerves, it was an eye-opening experience, one that reminded me of a powerful lesson once shared by great Yoga Masters, Rodney and Colleen Saidman Yee at the end of their London workshop: growth happens when you step outside your comfort zone.

As adults, we don’t often put ourselves in situations that make us feel vulnerable in this way. But children do it all the time—through tests, exams, performances, and sports. Being in these competitions helped me reconnect with that feeling, not just the stress of it, but also the deep sense of community and belonging that emerges when we face challenges together.

Lessons from the Experience:

Nerves are universal – Every single person I competed alongside, regardless of age or experience, felt nervous. It’s not just me, or you—it’s human.

Focus on the experience, not just the outcome – Rather than fixating on winning or losing, I tried to stay present, fully absorbing the moment. This shift in focus made the process so much more rewarding, and allowed the anxiety linked to the outcome to not add further pressure.

Resilience is built through action – The more we put ourselves in these situations, the better we learn to navigate stress. Avoiding challenges might feel safe, but it keeps our world small. Resilience to stress is built through exposure, just like getting better at exercise when you do it repeatedly.

Community is found in shared challenges – There was an incredible sense of camaraderie among those competing, not just through the sport but through our human experience, it brought us together. Not dissimilar after all to what we experience after a Yoga Workshop.

A Fresh Perspective on Children’s Challenges

This experience also gave me a deeper appreciation for what our children go through daily. Tests, exams, performances—these are their “competitions,” and they too feel the pressure. As educators, parents, and mentors, we must acknowledge their emotional experience, which inherently comes with a need to balance and soothe afterwards. Breathwork, mindfulness, movement—all the tools we teach in yoga—are just as essential in these moments as they are in adult life.

Yoga, Mindfulness and Breath practices can help children navigate through the challenges of life in school and on-line.
