Yoga in schools
Incorporating a yoga programme into the school week works in-line with the Curriculum for Excellence by promoting the physical, mental, emotional, social and physical wellbeing of pupils.
Sessions also help promote academic achievement by maximising a student’s focus and learning ability when they return to class.
Inclusivity is at the heart of all our classes, which also encourage confidence, independent thinking, teamwork and positive attitudes.
Little School of Yoga sessions are taught with a focussed, structured approach and can be tailored to suit your school’s need.
A massive thank you for all your hard work this term with the after school yoga sessions The session feedback was brilliant.

- Movement Based Learning (MBL) and Educational Kinesiology - Brain Gym: MBL is a series of movement-related exercises that help awaken the brain to make life and learning easier (developing neurological patterns where the building blocks are incomplete or missing). This is suitable for all ages, but is of particular benefit to differently-abled children and children presenting with ADHD, Autism etc. MBL can help improve focus or improved awareness of self and others.
