“Yoga is a light which once lit will never dim. The better your practice, the brighter the flame.” ~ B.K.S. Iyengar
These words could not be more true, my light was lit in 2001 and yoga has been part of my life ever since.
My own journey has taken a pathway through various styles of yoga and meditation. Through this experience it became clear that yoga is not just for adults, children love and embrace the personal growth it brings.
My children’s yoga training has been completed with Zenergy Yoga under the guidance of Loraine Rushton, who wrote the standards for children’s yoga in Australia:
- 115 hours Children’s Yoga Teacher Training, including 95 hours Children’s Yoga Teacher Training accredited by Yoga Alliance
- 75 hours assisting the delivery of Zenergy Children’s Yoga Teacher Training courses
- 175 hours Zenergy Leadership Programme
My children’s mindfulness training was completed with Mindfulness For Children under the guidance of Elizabeth Mulhane and is accredited by International Meditation and Mindfulness Alliance:
- Program Building Specialist
- Mindfulness For Children Teacher
Education is an ongoing pursuit, I have also completed The Science and Practice of Yoga with YogaMOOC, Heart of Yoga Immersion with Mark Whitwell and Foundations of Tantrik Yoga with Christopher Wallis.
I’m a member of Yoga Australia and International Meditation and Mindfulness Alliance (IMMA), have a current Working With Children Check, First Aid certificate and am insured with AON.
As parents, carers and teachers we have the privilege of creating the inner child of tomorrow’s adults.
Inner Child Yoga teaches children to be at home within themselves, love who they are and fully experience the adventure of life.
