OM Schooled Teen Yoga Teacher Training!
Learn to teach amazing, comprehensive, intuitive and powerful yoga classes to teens!
Friday May 23 6-8 Intro Session
Sat and Sun May 24 and 25: 10-6 Full Day Trainings
This training focuses on asana/poses, breath work, meditation and complimentary activities (such as nutrition and the arts) to empower teen students ages 13-18 to be their best selves. We'll examine the different developmental stages for this group, looking at changes in body/mind/spirit, identity and social shifts.
You will learn not only the building blocks of a successful teen class, but tools for putting them together in successful lessons and curriculum.
The teen years are full of change, exploration and introspection naturally....it's powerful to arm kids with yogic tools to help them be peaceful warriors at this time of life and beyond!
*Included in course fees: full teacher training manual and access to our international online cOMmunity
OM Schooled teacher trainings grew out of years of full-time-on-the-ground yoga teaching in New York City public schools. Formed in 2008, OM Schooled approaches teaching with vigor and joy. You'll learn not only tons of poses, breath work, meditation and games for specific ages and learning styles, but tools for how to put it all together. Focus is on classroom structure, lesson planning, combining classroom management with yoga, understanding developmental stages, and practice teaching. We learn together! OM Schooled has now trained teachers worldwide.
