Hello BlissYogaSG Community! 💜 As part of our BlissYogaSG community, I love sharing practical tips and insights to support children's focus, confidence and holistic well-being through yoga, mindfulness and purposeful play. One thing I've learnt from nearly a decade of working with children is that before we can teach, we need to engage. Whether we're teaching yoga, mindfulness or any other activity, if children aren't engaged and attentive, meaningful learning becomes much harder. Focus isn't...

When people first look at a Kids Yoga Teacher Training, they often ask: “What will I learn?” Yoga poses?Breathing activities?Games?Mindfulness? Yes — all of that. But after years of training teachers, I believe the more important question is: What should you be able to DO by the end of the training? My goal is that you don’t simply walk away with a certificate. You should be able to walk into a room of children and actually know what to do. -To observe before immediately instructing. -To...

When I first started teaching yoga and mindfulness to children, I already knew yoga. I understood movement.I understood breath.I understood mindfulness. But very quickly, I realised something important: Knowing yoga is not the same as knowing how to teach children. A child who is restless may not need another instruction. A child who is quiet may not necessarily be calm. A 4-year-old will not learn the same way as a 12-year-old. And sometimes, before asking a child to focus, breathe or follow...

When I first started teaching children, I already knew yoga as a teacher for adults I knew the poses. I knew breathing practices. I knew how to sequence a class. But very quickly, I realised something: Knowing yoga and knowing how to teach children are two very different things. Children don’t always follow instructions the way adults do. A 4-year-old may need imagination and movement before stillness. A 7-year-old may need structure, play and simple rules. A tween may need challenge, choice...

Kids Running Around, Distracted or Not Ready to Listen? Hi Reader, You’ve planned a beautiful kids yoga class… but within the first few minutes, children are excited, distracted, shy, restless or simply not ready to follow you. The solution isn’t always asking them to “sit down and focus.” Sometimes, we first need to understand what energy has entered the room and respond to what the children need. That’s exactly why I created this new practical workshop: From Chaos to Calm: Connection &...

Hi Reader, When I first started teaching Kids Yoga, I thought a good class meant children were following along, staying on their mats and doing what I had planned. Over time, I realised that some of my biggest learning came from the things I gradually stopped doing. 1. I stopped expecting stillness immediately Children may come into class excited, tired, distracted or full of energy. Instead of expecting them to suddenly sit still and focus, I learnt to meet the energy first — often through...

Hi Reader, If you love yoga and enjoy working with children, you may wonder: Do I really need a Kids Yoga Teacher Training? For me, the answer is yes — because teaching children is very different from teaching adults. It’s not just about simplifying yoga poses or making the class fun. You need to understand: How to help children focus How to connect with them so they feel ready to participate How children learn at different ages How to keep them engaged without over-instructing How to use...
