Yoga for Physical Education Teachers

We all know that yoga has many benefits. Because it is a lifetime physical activity, it should be a component of the Physical Education Curriculum. It is something that all students can do, and it is something that all students need.

Learn how to implement yoga into your Physical Education Curriculum by participating in Yoga for Physical Education Teachers. Created by an RYT200 veteran Physical Education Teacher, this one-day training includes breath work, poses, sample yoga games, and activities. Upon completion, you will have the tools, skills, and knowledge to teach your students the basics of yoga. Not only will you learn how to make yoga fun and adaptable for all, but you will be able to create your own yoga lesson plans to fit the needs of your students.

"The Trauma-Informed Yoga and Mindfulness professional development workshop was extremely informative and engaging. The instructor did a wonderful job of balancing sharing content knowledge, discussion, and physical practice. The tools and trauma informed practices presented will be simple to bring back to my classroom and beneficial for the scholars. The workshop provides both specific strategies and a trauma-informed lens to view your current practices through. I highly recommend attending!
