Sharing Knowledge
This 6 day teacher training will cover the period from birth to age four and will fully integrate mother and baby yoga (from birth to walking) and yoga for toddlers and their parents together.
The training is highly practical, providing a sound foundation in the yogic understanding of ethics, respect, kindness and energetic harmony between adults and children. The course will include short written assignments and case studies within a fully supported framework for study. To facilitate effective learning and assimilation of the wealth of material covered, the training will be spread out over 3 months, with the basics being taught in the initial 3 day session with time then being given for students to observe classes, complete practical assignments and to put the principles into practice.
The course will cover postnatal recovery yoga for healing and vitality; asana, pranayama, mudra, meditation and deep relaxation with babies for each developmental stage during the early years together with sample class plans; the conscious and positive use of yoga to build physical and emotional contact between parents, babies and young children and the use of yoga to promote joy in family life; and group dynamics, the use of language, yoga games, songs and pair work in family yoga sessions.
Uma Dinsmore-Tuli was first introduced to yoga at the age of four, has been teaching yoga and meditation since 1986 and qualified as a yoga therapist in 1999. Read Uma Dinsmore-Tuli's full biography.
