No Experience of Yoga? No Worries!
Our lessons are really easy to deliver and require no experience of yoga or additional resources (except gym mats). Essentially all the poses are taught by us via the video links on the Delivery Slides! All you need is your Lesson Pack which includes two documents:
1) A Detailed Lesson Plan
Our detailed lesson plans consist of progressive objectives throughout as well as clear instructions and guidance to support the children during the lessons. Within your lesson plan there are links to any other resources you may need such as downloadable yoga pose cards.
2) Lesson Delivery Slides
Your Lesson Delivery Slides are your one stop shop to delivering the yoga lesson - all you need is a projector / screen and access to the internet. The slides walk the children and you through the lesson, just like a presentation - providing links to videos for many of the activities (there are 3-4 videos per lesson on average).
Our yoga videos are delivered by our qualified Primary School Teachers and Children’s Yoga Instructors with many years' experience of teaching Yoga & Mindfulness in schools. Our instructors are Enhanced DBS checked and hold the relevant insurance to deliver yoga via video.
Equipment /Resources
Yoga lessons are ideally taught on yoga mats or gym mats. No other equipment is needed unless you'd like to teach some of the activities by yourself, in which case, some of the items below would be useful:
-
Yoga mats or gym mats
-
Chime bar (or similar instrument)
-
Relaxing music playlist
