Mini Me Yoga - CPD training

Did you know that Yoga, mindfulness and positive thinking techniques can help children in many ways with their academic learning at the same time as supporting their emotional wellbeing?

Overview

According to the Mental Health Foundation 50% of mental health problems are established by age 14 and 10% of children and young people (aged 5-16 years) have a clinically diagnosable mental problem with 70% of children and adolescents who experience mental health problems have not had appropriate interventions at a sufficiently early age.

With the Mini Me Yoga program, you do not have to add to your workload, you can embed the techniques into the school day, use it as part of the PE curriculum (an alternative sport!) or perhaps hold a breakfast or after school yoga club for your pupils.
