The training provided is to be used a guide for yoga teachers or those with a strong practice of yoga (at least two years) setting out in teaching children’s yoga. The student/teacher can be fully qualified in teaching yoga and been teaching adults already for some time however individuals who have been practicing yoga for 2 years or more are most welcome. This then allows the practitioner/teacher to have an already sound working knowledge of yoga, of class postures/techniques and structure, of which they can then teach to children in their own style. A background in working with Children will certainly help, though not compulsory as we help you learn those skills also.
