Bringing the benefits of Yoga and Mindfulness to children.
My sessions weave Yoga movements together with breathing exercises, relaxation and mindfulness. Children’s balance, physical awareness, posture and self-confidence all improve with regular Yoga practise. Together we also explore ways to recognise and manage big emotions, such anxiety, frustration and fear. As well as taking time out of the day for stillness and relaxation.
"As a childminder I'm always looking at challenging activities for the children in my care. Alison’s classes are not a set of yogic postures but are custom made interactive. We would discuss what stage of learning they are on and she would integrate that in the next class. 2-3 year olds were able balance on one foot, hold their concentration on a single object and stay still. It’s been totally fascinating to see the changes in them.
Totally totally recommend these sessions. Absolutely wonderful!"
Arti, Childminder, North Finchley
“Alison continued to deliver online yoga lessons during lockdown and the feedback from parents was excellent. It really helped with not only their activity levels but their mental health as well.“
Louisa Taylor, Primary Headteacher Wren Academy, North Finchley
"The children look forward to Alison's sessions on Fridays and the lessons prove successful for the children who are calm but energised afterwards. Thank you for your fab sessions!"
Danielle Karr, Head of Early Years, Naima Jewish Primary School, Kilburn
"The children really enjoyed being engaged in something different and new – some of our children who find it difficult to focus for periods of time and/or who display some challenging behaviours got way more stuck in than we could have imagined. It was a really positive experience."
