Little Flower Yoga and Mindfulness is a New York based organization dedicated to making the tools of yoga and mindfulness available to all children and teens. Our classes are rooted in youth development principles and address children’s holistic wellness needs in a joy filled environment. LFY provides tools that help all children come to school ready to learn, and give parents and teachers strateg

ies and support to reinforce these tools. The School Wellness Project, a program of LFY, currently serves over 700 children per week with in-school and after-school yoga classes, and reaches many more through our network of trained school staff and affiliate partners. We also offer a comprehensive, yoga alliance accredited Teacher Training certification for yoga instructors and practitioners interested in sharing yoga with children and teens. Created by an educator, our programs incorporate learning goals throughout every class, and our instructors take advantage of the many teachable moments that occur in each session. Little Flower Yoga challenges students to learn in new ways, make connections, and recognize their tremendous capacity to achieve. Everyday, we strive to provide tools that help all children come to school ready to learn, and give parents and teachers strategies and support to reinforce these tools. In May of 2009 LFY became a founding member of the Yoga Service Council, a non-profit organization whose mission is to develop a community of professional support in the field of yoga service. We are committed to sharing a skills based approach to yoga and mindfulness with all children, regardless of circumstance.

NEW OFFERING!

FUNDAMENTALS OF TEACHING AWARENESS PRACTICES TO CHILDREN AND TEENS

Discover proven, playful, and effective ways to share yoga and mindfulness with youth from ages 3 to 18.

We’ve developed this introductory course to give you the essentials of our time tested methodology. It covers the first three modules of our Level 1 training, giving you a foundation of knowledge that you can put to use right away, or use to pivot into a more comprehensive program.

✨Five Element Method: A clear, structured framework (based on our five-element methodology of connect, breathe, move, focus and relax) to make teaching and learning easier and more effective.

✨Guiding Principles: Best practices for safely and effectively sharing yoga and mindfulness based on real-world applications in hundreds of schools.

✨Relationship Building: Ways to support community building and help students learn collaboratively in a way that builds healthy relationships.

✨Developmental Perspective on the Brain and Nervous System: Research based information to help you understand why and when to incorporate various practices based on the needs of students in the moment, and what would benefit them developmentally.

✨Activity Toolbox: An array of engaging activities ready for immediate implementation.

This training doesn’t just scratch the surface. Together with a community of like-minded individuals, you’ll dive into practical, trauma-informed approaches that you can apply immediately in your teaching, coaching, counseling, parenting, or other work with children.

If you have any questions about whether this course is right for you, please be in touch any time! We hope this accessible option makes it easy for you to jump in to sharing awareness practices with young people effectively and joyfully. Hope to see you in our learning community!

Discover the proven, playful, and effective ways to share yoga and mindfulness with youth from ages 3 to 18. Our training, rooted in more than fifteen years of experience and research, equips you to develop resilience and well-being in young minds, even if you’ve never practiced yoga before.
