This is a newly integrated yoga teacher training course that brings together material from the postnatal yoga teacher training course and the early years teacher training course.
It covers the period from birth to age 4 and will fully integrate mother and baby yoga (from birth to walking) and yoga for toddlers and their parents together. The course will cover:
- Group dynamics, the use of language, yoga games and songs and pair work in family yoga sessions.
- Asana, pranayama, mudra, meditation and deep relaxation for each developmental stage during the early years together with sample class plans.
- The conscious and positive use of yoga to build physical and emotional contact between parents, babies and young children and how yoga can be used to promote joy in family life.
This 6 day course is the UK’s first fully comprehensive training for yoga teachers to teach family yoga classes from birth to pre-school. The training will be highly practical, providing a sound foundation in the yogic understanding of ethics, respect, kindness and energetic harmony between adults and children.
The course will include short written assignments and case studies within a fully supported framework for study. To facilitate effective learning and assimilation of the wealth of material covered, the training will be spread out over 5 months, with the basics being taught in the initial 3 day session with time then being given for students to observe classes, complete practical assignments and to put the principles into practice.
The course is designed by Uma Dinsmore-Tuli.
