After researching various Children's Yoga teacher training courses I chose Yoga at School because it has a very practical element and is not just theory.You get to see first hand the setting up of the day and each lesson (for the different year groups at school), how to teach Yoga in a playful way and witness the effects of the Yoga sessions on the children.
After the training Michael has been very supportive, answering any queries I have and generously sharing his knowledge, tools and advice.

It was so useful to see how the lessons are structured, how the games work with each year group and how to work with the postures and engage the children. Overall it was very welcoming, very organised and was very inspiring.

I was not disappointed! It was great to see the structure and integration of various games with a continual ethos on discipline. I have taken away a wealth of information. I can see how you have integrated yoga into the curriculum so successfully.
A refreshing change for value for money

This training is perfect for anyone learning to teach yoga to children as part of the integrated school day. Michael is an experienced teacher and the practical, hands-on nature of the training that he provides (across all year groups) is truly invaluable, as is his on-going support

Excellent. I was able to see how the structure of the lesson is key to its success and how Michael adapts activities to the needs of each class. It was brilliant to be able to talk to Michael and benefit from his advice and experience

A chance to have hands on experience with real children. It was more than learning about yoga, it was also about positive behaviour management . A very calm , enjoyable and educational day.

I just want to say a really big THANK YOU for a brilliant day. I have taken lots of yoga courses in the UK and India and this was the best.

I had one day's training with Michael and got so much out of it - a wealth of ideas for lesson planning, teaching techniques and approaching schools....
I continue to receive regular support and mentoring from Michael. He doesn't charge extra for this - he sees it as an ongoing network of support between himself and his trainees and takes a real interest - I've never had such helpful professional support and feel lucky to have trained with him.

Excellent. I got more from this one day than previous longer courses. We all know the benefits of yoga, in this training you really saw it in action. I wish I 'd done this two years ago. I can really appreciate what a skilled teacher Michael is.
It was a fun from start to finish and I am bursting with enthusiasm and new ideas. I have come away with easily enough material for at least a term's planning and loads of ideas for the one's after.
You cannot fail to gain so much from this experience.

This is a fun-packed, full on day of yoga , where you get a chance to see children engaging in yoga and subtely yet clearly learning how to listen, be part of the class, take turns and find their voice. Michael's experience and knowledge of not only yoga , but how to use yoga in a away that works and helps children's self esteem really shines through

A truly inspiring training day and now I'm very keen to get myself set up and ready for next term. A really good grounding in taking yoga into school keeping all children engaged and providing an enjoyable class to children
Cathy
Class Teacher & Children'sYoga Teacher

After a short time to absorb my learning, following a very busy day’s training with Michael, I feel ready to go into schools and begin yoga teaching.
This reflects the strong and well-tested model demonstrated by Michael, that gives an immediately workable way of teaching yoga to every child right across the school.
I so enjoyed being part of the day in school; seeing children responding so positively and the development possible for them, all conveyed calmly, yet with a fun element.
The resources provided with the course are of excellent quality and provide a clear visual guide, as well as helping with planning.
I feel able to contact Michael for further advice and continued support,as I begin this specialised yoga teaching; a very exciting and positive route ahead.

This was by far the most useful training I have attended . There is exceptional benefit in seeing a whole day in action and how Michael deals with the different year groups and children with differing needs. A must for any children's yoga teacher
Sarah Grice

A must for teaching yoga to children in schools and an effective way to teach not just the yoga , but also self esteem, confidence , teamwork and social skills.
I particularly liked seeing Michael's' techniques in action and the success that comes from consistant enforcement of his methods

What a great way to learn , first hand with Michael , who has so much experience . But also to see the impact on the kids faces . If you get the opportunity to train with Michael , grab it
