Mindful Movement
with Yogazeit
ABOUT THIS TRAINING
If you work with children or teenagers, you’ll know that sitting still is not always an option. This is where Mindful Movement Brain Breaks can help you change the classroom dynamics.
With short 5-15min curriculum aligned movement breaks you can support learning ready states (‘lighting up the brain’), foster social emotional learning, reduce stress and anxiety, help with transitions, regulate behaviour – all while also supporting the teachers’ health and wellness.
Breathing Techniques
To support grounding, calm, focus and learning.
Movement
Movement based brain breaks to enhance physical fitness, emotional wellbeing and cardio-vascular health.
Mindfulness
Focusing on the moment to combat anxiety, stress and tension.
Evidence-based
Yogazeit’s programs are based on international as well as Australian evidence. We collaborate with Universities to continually research and summarise benefits and outcomes.
Curriculum Aligned
Meeting Australian Curriculum Standards, the Australian Student Wellbeing Framework and the CASEL Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Framework.
Easy to use
No previous experience or knowledge necessary. Practical, easy-to-use, fun and engaging. This training doesn’t ‘add’ anything to your curriculum – instead it complements everything, making implementation easy.
Thank you for the Mindfulness Movement Professional Learning. A number of staff have commented that this was one of the best PL’s they’ve been involved in. Thank you so much. I can’t wait to see it in action.
Long Lasting Impact on School Communities
We know that this training impacts beyond it’s first year. However, within one year, a teacher who participated in the training supports more than 50 children per year with Mindfulness and Movement.
