What You Will Learn in this Course
Kids Yoga Foundations
Learn how to teach yoga in a way that actually works for kids. You’ll explore age-appropriate poses, sequencing, safety, classroom management, and how to keep kids engaged through play, storytelling, and imagination, not perfection.
Mindfulness & Emotional Regulation for Kids
Discover how to teach breathing, calming tools, and mindfulness practices that help children build focus, confidence, and emotional awareness. You’ll learn simple, powerful techniques kids can use in real life, not just on the mat.
Lesson Planning & Themed Classes
Master the art of planning fun, structured classes using themes kids love. From animals and seasons to emotions and adventures, you’ll learn how to build repeatable lesson plans that are easy to teach and exciting for kids.
Teaching in Schools, Childcares & Community Spaces
Learn how to confidently teach outside of a studio setting. This includes working in classrooms, gyms, childcares, camps, and community programs, plus how to adapt lessons for different group sizes, ages, and environments.
Behavior, Inclusion & Real-World Teaching Skills
Kids are kids, and we prepare you for real life. You’ll learn strategies for inclusion, transitions, attention challenges, mixed ages, and varying abilities, so you feel calm, capable, and confident as a kids yoga teacher.
Turning Your Training Into a Business or Career
Go beyond certification. Learn how to turn kids yoga into a meaningful income stream, whether that’s teaching part-time, launching a local program, or stepping into a Little Yogis Academy® license. We show you how to move from training to action.
This course is for you if…
- You love yoga and kids, but don’t know how to blend the two confidently
- You want to teach in schools, childcares, studios, camps, or community spaces
- You’re tired of trainings that feel theoretical, outdated, or disconnected from real kids
- You want plug-and-play tools, not just philosophy
- You want to stand out as a professional, not a hobbyist
“I felt confident teaching from day one.”
“I had taken yoga trainings before, but none of them truly prepared me to teach kids. This course was completely different. Everything was practical, playful, and realistic. I finished the training and felt confident walking into my very first class. The kids were engaged, calm, and asking when I was coming back. I finally feel like I know what I’m doing.”

“This actually turned into a paid opportunity.”
“I enrolled because I love yoga and wanted to work with kids, but I didn’t expect to start teaching so quickly. Within weeks of finishing the course, I was running kids yoga classes at a local community space. The training gave me real structure, age-appropriate tools, and the confidence to say ‘yes’ to opportunities instead of doubting myself.”
