The Flow and Grow Foundations of Children's Yoga Teacher Training is an 18-hour immersive training with subject expert Lara Hocheiser. We explore how the child's developing mind, body, and social needs inform our teaching. We experience 3 mock yoga classes that demonstrate what teaching looks like for each of the age ranges: Early childhood children (ages 2-7), Middle childhood children (ages 7-11), and Tweens and Teens (ages 11-14, 15-18). Learn a proven 7-component methodology that is substantial and flexible, preparing you to plan and teach lessons. Our comprehensive training focuses on yoga, mindfulness, and children's social-emotional development. Graduates will leave our training equipped with new tools to create engaging and captivating yoga experiences for kids of all ages.
