The Namaste Project’s 20-hour Kids Yoga Certification Program equips participants with the comprehensive tools to lead impactful and engaging yoga classes for children. Emphasizing games, songs, age-appropriate design, trauma-informed practices, and fostering community, this program empowers yoga instructors, educators, and parents to create enriching yoga experiences for kids.

Key Outcomes:

2. Musical Enchantment: Explore the magic of music in kids’ yoga classes, mastering catchy songs, chants, and rhymes that introduce yoga concepts, encourage movement, and enhance mindfulness.
3. Tailored Class Design: Gain insights into child development, shaping age-specific yoga classes, and structuring sessions that optimize engagement and learning for preschoolers, elementary children, and preteens.

Immerse yourself in theoretical understanding, experiential learning, and practical application through lectures, discussions, exercises, and teaching practice. Upon completion, you’ll be equipped to lead engaging yoga sessions, foster a trauma-informed and inclusive space, and build a strong sense of belonging among children.
