What Can One Sun Salutation Teach a Child?
|
Hi, Last week in one of our kids yoga sessions, the children practised a simple Sun Salutation flow. 🌞 At first, it may look like they are just stretching, moving their arms and copying the teacher. But for younger children, a playful yoga flow can support so much more. They are learning body awareness, coordination, listening skills, memory, sequencing, confidence, focus and early self-regulation. And this is why kids yoga is not about getting the pose “right.” It is about understanding how children learn and creating experiences that are age-appropriate, engaging, creative and meaningful. When yoga is taught well, it supports children not only physically, but also mentally and emotionally — through movement, breath, play, mindfulness and connection. This is exactly what we explore inside our Kids Yoga & Mindfulness Teacher Training at BlissYogaSG. Whether you are a yoga teacher, educator, parent, therapist, caregiver or simply passionate about supporting children’s well-being, this training gives you practical tools to bring yoga, mindfulness, breathwork, emotional regulation and creative movement into children’s lives. 🎓 95-Hour Yoga Alliance Registered Kids Yoga Teacher Training You’ll learn how to work with children from toddlers to teens through: ✅ yoga and movement Upcoming Training Dates 📍 In-Person Singapore Weekday Batch: 27 July – 7 August 2026 🔗 Register / view details: 💻 Live Online Training 25 July – 16 August 2026 🔗 Register / view details: If helping children build self-connection, confidence and emotional well-being from an early age through yoga and mindfulness speaks to you, we’d love to have you join us.

Energetic Kids in Yoga Class? 3 Things That Help Hi, If you have ever taught a children’s yoga class, school session or group activity, you may have experienced this. One child is full of energy. They may keep moving, leaving the mat, interrupting, rolling around, distracting others or needing your attention again and again. And very quickly, that one child can shift the energy of the whole class. As teachers, parents or caregivers, it is easy to feel frustrated in that moment. We may think:...
Hi, Over the past few weeks, through my kids yoga sessions, school wellness sessions and teacher training work, one thing has come up again and again: Children need these days practical tools to pause, breathe, focus and regulate.But these tools need to be taught in a way that children can actually connect with. Mindfulness is something we hear about so often now — and for good reason. In today’s overstimulated world, children are constantly taking in information, sounds, screens,...
Another question I often hear from people interested in Kids Yoga Teacher Training is: “Do I need to be a yoga teacher already to join?” The simple answer is — no, it is not mandatory.
