AYA offers lots of options to work with teachers and students from kindergarten to Year 12.

For teachers, we can tailor a stand-alone program to help you to introduce yoga and meditation/mindfulness techniques with their students, or one of our specially trained teachers can come to your school and facilitate classes.

AYA is also proud to offer a unique 250 hour, dedicated Yoga Teacher Training for School Teachers, which will qualify them to teach children of all ages and adults also.

The current research suggests that yoga and meditation/mindfulness is beneficial to students of all ages, because it helps with:

• social/emotional regulation
• developing resilience
• improving concentration
• enhancing gratitude and compassion – which is a pathway to happiness
• improving their perception of their overall health and well-being

We will work with you to develop a program that may include yoga, meditation/mindfulness and breathwork sessions to compliment any school wellbeing program currently in place. We can also offer programs on-site at our calming studio sanctuary in prahran, Melbourne.
