Are you a schoolteacher, school staff member, counselor, therapist, parent, nanny, babysitter, or caregiver looking to bring yoga and yoga-inspired activities into your children’s or charges’ lives? Are you a yoga teacher wanting to expand your teaching repertoire to kids and adolescents? Then, this is the workshop for you!
Master Educator MACKENZIE CAMPFIELD will lead participants through two hours of education, practice, and hands-on application about the fundamentals of kids' yoga. We will learn how to incorporate yoga-inspired movement and mindfulness activities to help improve children’s abilities to focus and concentrate; meditation and breathwork to help develop their emotional intelligence and coping mechanisms; and games to help teach self-awareness, self-acceptance, and healthy physical and mental habits. An arts-and-crafts activity is also included in which all participants will make and take home a calming glitter jar!
This workshop is educational in nature and intended for adults and young adults who interact with children and adolescents. It does not include an actual kids' yoga class or official certification in Kids' Yoga or related specialization. Participants will leave the workshop with a “toolbox” of yoga and yoga-inspired activities and games for preschoolers, elementary-aged children, pre-teens, and teenagers.
Two units of Yoga-Alliance approved Continuing Education hours for registered yoga instructors will be earned upon completion of the workshop.
