Early Years Programme (2-5 years)
About the training programme
The early years training programme progresses over four levels to give a complete solution to wellbeing using yoga and mindfulness techniques which have been specially adapted to be safe and to support the development of this age group. Fun not form is the main focus, with songs and a play based approach used to spark their curiosity, coregulate and set the foundation for later practice.
You will have the confidence to teach physical yoga sessions after level 1 including warm up, postures, activities and relaxation using the unique visual timetable 'Grab and Go' scheme of work pack and training manual.
With level 1 as your foundation, the additional levels advance your learning to understand the breath, brain and mindfulness, using additional postures and activities in your 'Grab and Go' scheme of work pack.
Training and ongoing support is delivered on the Yoginis Yoga platform 'The Hive'. Online training allows you to train at your own pace and includes, audio, diagrams, illustrations and demonstration videos to suit all types of learners.
For organisations wishing to train as a group, we offer a session plan, which a nominated member of staff can use to facilitate the training.
