Course Structure

The Dru Kids and Teens teacher training is a combination of online training days and an in-person weekend designed to inspire, inform, and ignite a passion to work with children and young adults.

The online component spans over four consecutive Sundays, the first one being the foundations day and the following three Sundays focusing on the different age groups:

Day 1 – Foundations Day:

Lay the groundwork for effective teaching techniques and basic principles of teaching yoga and meditation to young people.

Day 2 – Early Childhood 3-5 year olds

Dive into the magical world of our littlest yogis, our early explorers, fostering their physical and emotional well-being.

Day 3 – Childhood 6 – 12 year olds

Journey into the vibrant world of primary school-aged children, our joyful juniors who like to play and be creative.

Day 4 – Teens and young adults 13-18 year olds

Empower the future leaders of tomorrow during this often challenging and potentially transformative stage of life.

Live Weekend in Canberra: The Heart of the Training!

Experience the magic again of coming together in person for a weekend of fun and connection.

There will also be lesson planning and teaching prac assessments, which will be done in small groups. These are a great opportunity for you to bring together and put into practice what you’ve learnt so you can go out with confidence to share yoga, relaxation and meditation with kids and teens.
