Yoga & Mindfulness in Schools

Helping children develop a sense of themselves in a busy world!

Schools

I spend most of my working week in schools these days, which I love.

My work in schools varies, each school I work with has different and specific needs. My aim is to work with each individual school to bring yoga and mindfulness to the staff, children and young people in a way that supports the schools needs and budget!

Mindful Moments – A whole School Approach to wellbeing

Mindful Moments is a whole school Mindfulness approach, offering a simple yet effective tool to support a calmer, happier, more focused learning environment.

The package includes Mindful Moments Cards for teachers to use daily, a training session for all staff, explaining the benefits and science behind it, the practices and how to deliver them. Demonstrations within the classroom , class plans for all ages and classes. the option to have support in offering one to one sessions for those in need of it, and a follow up session with teachers.  The cards have been designed for teachers to use during class with students, AND for teachers to use themselves, to support effective stress and time management.

I am available to teach yoga and mindfulness to children during school hours supporting physical and emotional wellbeing. This can be part of the curriculum for physical activity or come be part of a wellbeing curricular for supporting mental health and wellbeing.

I am available to do run mindfulness, meditation and relaxation sessions at schools, and can adapt these sessions to meet the needs, age and abilities of the children attending.

I am also available to work with staff wellbeing, offering yoga and or mindfulness sessions for staff after school hours, to ensure a happy and healthy team of staff!

I also offer a whole school Mindfulness approach, MINDFUL MOMENTS – which includes training for staff, and demonstrations with the children so that staff can being to incorporate movement, mindfulness and relaxation techniques into their day with the children and young people.
