More than Yoga Poses ...
​
Kids' yoga isn’t just about fun, animal yoga poses anymore. (That's very 2012...)
Today’s children need tools for nervous system regulation, emotional safety, connection and a safe space to "be".
That’s why this training focuses on more than poses. I will teach you how to support the whole child.

About
My name is Alexa Young
Meet Stacey Louise
Stacey Louise is one of Australia’s most experienced and inspiring Children's Yoga Teachers.
With over 20 years’ experience, she brings a trauma-aware, heart-led approach to everything she teaches — from Kindy teacher workshops to the Calm Fairies hospital program.
​
Through her inspiring training programs, she has certified hundreds of educators, parents and professionals to confidently use practical tools in everyday life.
​
Stacey’s also taught at national Yoga festivals, appeared on Peppa Pig’s YouTube channel, and created globally-screened kids’ yoga videos. What lights her up most is helping others feel safe, calm and connected.
What do I need to be a Children's Yoga Teacher? ​
There are no legal requirements in Australia for what training you need to be able to teach Kid's Yoga because Yoga is an unregulated industry. However, the voluntary registration bodies, Yoga Australia (for Australia and NZ) and Yoga Alliance (USA & global) recommend 95 hours of specialised training with a Registered Children's Yoga Teacher Training school on top of holding a Level 1 Yoga Teacher Certificate (minimum 200 hours).
The Inspired Kid's Yoga Teacher Training Level 3 is a registered 95 hour training with both Yoga Alliance and Yoga Australia. Level 1 & 2 of the Calm Coach or Inspired Kids Yoga Teacher training will still enable you to get a certificate for insurance, however you have to stay within the scope of that level of training.
​
To begin teaching Children's Yoga you will need:
* a certificate from a Children's Yoga Teacher Training School
* insurance that covers the level of training that you have done
* a "Safe to work with children" card
* first aid certificate
​
The Inspired Kids Yoga Teacher training teaches you everything that you need to know to teach a safe, inspiring and educational, age appropriate yoga class for ages two to teen.
​
You will receive the lesson plan frameworks and all of the helpful information and tips that I have gleaned from my 20 years experience of teaching yoga to children (from kindy to teen) so that your journey can be as easeful and streamlined as possible so that you can immediately make an impact with the children in your community.
