Why Teach Kids Yoga?
Children today often experience busy schedules, constant stimulation and everyday pressures. Kids yoga introduces simple, engaging practices that can help children manage stress, recognise their emotions and become more aware of their thoughts and feelings.
Through playful movement, breathing exercises and mindfulness, children can explore their strengths, develop self-confidence and build a positive relationship with their bodies.
What children can learn through yoga

Can I do this course without previous education?
Yes. We designed this course to be available as a stand-alone education in this style. If you want to teach, a 200-hour yoga teacher training course in any other style (preferably Hatha Yoga) is recommended. A 200-hour course will help you have the foundational knowledge of asanas, give more teaching confidence, and a wide range of general yoga knowledge. This course specifically focuses only on in-depth knowledge to teach this style of yoga professionally. For this reason, these shorter courses are sometimes called continuing education. If you want to teach this style of yoga only, this course is perfectly suitable.
What if I have any questions during the course?
Our online Teen Yoga Teacher Training course comes with unlimited teacher support. For questions during or after your study, you can contact the teacher directly.
Are there any exams?
There are simple quizzes throughout the course and a final exam at the end of the course which need a passing grade in order to complete the course. The quizzes and the exam can be attempted an unlimited number of times. This way, we ensure that you have gained sufficient knowledge to teach Teen Yoga.
How do I receive the certificate after I finish the course? Is there any extra cost for it?
The certificate will automatically be available for download once you finish the last chapter and the exam. There is no extra cost for it.
I don't have a credit card, can I pay with bank transfer or any other method?
Yes, you can pay with debit card, iDeal, Sepa bank transfer, or Sofort.

The course is very well organised, the videos are very clear and the supporting material is really valuable. It has been a wonderful and interesting in-depth learning experience. My heartfelt thanks to Marzia!!
I love the course content and format of the course. I have learned alot!
I really enjoyed this course. The material was very informative and the course was presented in a logical format. The didactic strategies are very useful. I am an elementary school teacher and I have a better understanding of the educational role of yoga. The videos and downloadable material of different games, fairytales with asanas, breathing exercises and meditations are great and ready to use!
it is a very stimulating course with a lot of precise information about the peculiarities of the audience. I particularly appreciated the emphasis on the educational aspects of yoga and how yoga can play a major role in child development.The focus seems to be more on teens than kidsyoga, though there are many valuable ideas on the last subject. I highly recommand the course!
I have done several teacher training at Arhanta and I have always found professionalism, dedication, huge knowledge and passion in all the trainings and most of all in all the teachers. Kids yoga makes no exception. I am grateful to find it out.
Thanks a lot for the detailed well designed course! I already give childrens classes in other areas and got so many new ideas that I know feel comfortable to teach yoga for kids, too. Especially the manuals and videos with the games and class rituals helped me a lot. Once again: a great online course by arhantayoga!
this course is so nicely designed. Clearly explained with lots of tools. If you work with children and teens this is the perfect course. Marzia explains it well and shares her wealth of experiences. Thank you for sharing your experience.
I liked the practical part, how to carry out your course step by step with the different tools presented and the advice shared, which in my opinion is very beneficial
Thank you Maria for sharing all your experience and wisdom in such a passionate, kind and professional way 🙏🏽
Marzia is a dedicated teacher and shines. Her course has taught me a lot about kids and yoga and she is a good role model. There is rich and detailed content including child psychology and detailed lesson plans. For improvement in general; I missed more interactive elements of online learning and higher quality (translation) of written educational materials. Recommend this course.
I really enjoyed the course and learned so much! I am looking to teach young children and this was helpful, the course is more heavily focused on teen yoga as this is more comprehensive for their age, but Marzia helped me with a lesson outline for the toddlers too.
Thanks a lot!
Michelle
Such an engaging course with an amazing empathetic teacher. I didn’t want to stop learning because it was such high quality. I would absolutely recommend!
This is a truly valuable course: Marzia is a very attentive, precise and stimulating teacher. The contents are rich and thery are presented in a effective and clear way. As a school teacher, I brought many of the suggested exercises to school. I highly recommend this course. Thanks again, Marzia!
It's a very clear and well constructed course. Easy to follow and you can find everything very well. Great videomaterial and Marzia is quick to answer and check your homework.
Deze opleiding is duidelijk en praktisch. Je leert o.a. wat belangrijk is bij yoga met kinderen/ tieners en het verschil met yoga voor volwassenen.
I really enjoyed doing this course, it got me exited and fulfilled my expectations. Marzia Bendotti is very generous in sharing her knowledge and experience as a yoga teacher for children and teenagers. In my case I think I would have liked to have at least 2 more weeks to finish the course so I could have practiced more what I learnt in between sections. Thank you so much!!
I find the course super informative and inspiring and I can't wait to get out there and meet the kids and the teenageres in yoga classes.
A very interesting course with a lot of material (text and videos) showing all the different aspects of yoga for kids and teenagers and how to start teaching. A must-do course !
