Teaching yoga
to children is unlike anything you are likely to have done before.
Prepare to have all your expectations about what a yoga class looks
like shattered. The children you teach, the children who teach you,
will inspire you to new levels of creativity and compel you to let go
of preconceptions and relinquish a great degree of control. They will
challenge your patience, your dedication and maybe even shake your
confidence, but they will also inspire deep joy and satisfaction.
There is
nothing quite like helping a child master a difficult balance and
knowing that her confidence and self-esteem have been strengthened
along with her legs, or watching a group of students dissolve into
giggles as they make up their own yoga poses, or seeing the shift that
occurs on a child's face when he finally release into truly nurturing
relaxation (maybe for the first time ever).
If you are interested
in teaching children yoga, incorporating yoga into your lesson plans at
school, or making yoga a part of your life with your own children, come
join us for information, inspiration and fun.
Courses include Little
Flower Teacher Training Levels One through Three, designed for those with prior yoga experience, and the Little Flower Teacher's Workshop, designed
for classroom teachers looking to incorporate yoga into the school day (no yoga
experience is necessary).

What some of our participants have said about Teacher Training:
"This training met my
expectations in more ways than i could have known. Jennifer is so
knowledgeable and posses the unique ability to really inform people. I
feel confident in my teacher ability and ready to begin. Thank you!"
"Everything in this course was presented in a very
relevant, clear, obviously well thought out matter. Very practical
advice on real situations, tons of great ideas, and I really like the
wide variety of ready-to-use hands-on activities"
"Jennifer is
obviously doing what she is supposed to be doing in this
life...teaching. She is a wonderful person with such a bright energy
that motivates the room. I'm so happy to have been a part of her
training and the community she has created."

NEW WORKSHOPS FOR TEACHERS!
THE COMPASSIONATE CLASSROOM
March 16 6:00-9:00pm
WHERE: Karma Kids Yoga, 104 West 14th St. NY NY
Are you ever frustrated by the behavior of your
students? Ever frustrated by your own reaction to their behavior? Feel
like you don't want to yell but don't know what else to do? Wish you
could spend more time on content and less on classroom management?
The
Compassionate Classroom workshop will give you tools and techniques to
keep your students engaged through cooperation rather than control. You
will learn to teach classes in a way that shows compassion and respect
for all children, and use powerful communication strategies to create
an environment of mutual trust.
Our
goal is to provide all children with a sense of internal discipline,
and offer teachers alternatives to punishment methods that serve to
re-orient students to activities rather than ostracize them. Avoid
unnecessary conflict and power struggles with your students and you
will be amazed at how much time you can dedicate to learning!
