Children’s Classes

Whilst teaching in school, I noticed the profound effect of yoga and its ability to still the mind of all children, but particularly those with anxiety, ASD or ADHD and recent studies by organisations such as:

National Library of Medicine

Science Direct

have backed up my findings.

I observed increased flexibility and strength in my regular attendees.

Whilst on school residentials, I led yoga nidra sessions with 9,10 and 11 year old children. It was particularly beneficial for the homesick or those who could not sleep and the feedback from both children and their parents was inspiring. This inspired me to create a popular yoga nidra club at breaktimes, again with very positive feedback. I strongly believe that the ancient practice of yoga can be blended with the modern world to help the flexibility and mental health of all ages.

As a qualified Yo-Chi practitioner (click for website) I take the Yo-Chi programme into primary schools, youth groups and charities, delivering mindfulness and gentle stretching through the medium of games and rhymes.
