About the Themes and Dreams Certificate
The Themes and Dreams Certificate features simple postures and meditations that can be safely taught with little explanation. The focus is on creating lesson plans using themes. Starting with the Young Yoga Masters curriculum you’ll see powerful examples of how to take your classes from good to awesome! Then you’ll get the tools to see how easy it is to create lesson plans with new themes. In this weekend workshop you will discover:
- Themes that Bring Yoga Alive for Kids: Get lesson plans that tell you exactly how to explain powerful concepts in kid-friendly ways, like yoga, meditation, mindfulness, and stress relief. These are put in simple terms like you’ve never heard before! You'll relate to yoga more deeply so you can effectively explain these ideas to children.
- Meditations that Kids Ask For: Yes, that’s right. It’s not uncommon for children to come in and ask for these meditations once they’ve experienced them!
- If You’re Going to Dream – Dream BIG! Lessons based on stories and folk tales that inspire kids to let go of worry, relax, imagine and dream big. Stories that make it fun for teachers to bring yoga to kids. Most importantly, they are written in neutral language that is suitable for any environment.
- The Kids Yoga Class Creator: A lesson plan template to guide you through developing your own kids yoga classes for different ages, time frames, and settings from the living room to the studio.
- Quick Yoga: Quick, everyday tools for calming and centering.
- Rejuvenation: An amazing course to connect with others and nourish your soul. This training is about practical, personal, and professional development. It’s full of imagination and fresh ideas.
- Yoga Camp Practicum: You'll be guided to complete your kids yoga practicum component. You'll observe your lead trainers teaching kids yoga and then you'll teach from the assigned curriculum and get feedback to help you develop as a kids yoga teacher.
