To complete your 95 hours of training, you are required to complete 20 practicum hours working in real time with real children. You can choose to do this in your own community using our printable log sheets OR sign up to join us live during the week following training, Mon-Fri June 9-13. There is no additional fee for completing your practicum with us and the perk of working with other teachers and receiving feedback in real time can be extremely helpful if you are able to dedicate the time to working with us. More details on location and times for practicum will be available in the next few weeks as we confirm with our local summer camp connections.
What our graduates Are Saying
“I am so glad I did Balanced Kids Yoga. Not only did I get great contact hours teaching kids in a supportive environment, it was really fun to be able to play like a kid myself. The most valuable part has been the made-for-me class plans so I can teach kids of any age at a moment’s notice. Having my training manual on my bookshelf is still a lifesaver years later. What a great investment for any yoga teacher.”
-Emily D.
“This course was well organized and provided many options for in person or remote learning. The way the course was structured gave participants opportunities to collaborate, reflect and plan lessons. It was clear from the level of enthusiasm of the children we worked with that the lessons we were provided were highly engaging.”
