Course Overview
Our Toddler and Children's Yoga Instructor Training teaches you to deliver sensory and yoga-inspired classes for children aged 18 months to 7 years. You'll learn how to weave yoga-inspired poses, movement, sensory play, songs, and traditional and modern stories into engaging sessions that are fun for both children and parents.
The programme has a strong emphasis on child development and teaching key life skills through movement, sensory play, storytelling, and song. It is designed with the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) and KS1 in mind — making it ideal for nurseries, schools, and children's centres, as well as private practice.
The course is available fully online (self-paced), via one-to-one virtual face-to-face Zoom, or face-to-face in-house. All routes lead to the same accredited qualification.
