Schools, Kindies & Vacation Care
Yoga classes are a wonderful opportunity for children to take time from their busy schedules to exercise their bodies, learn relaxation techniques and improve their focus and attention.Magic Monkey Yoga Kids can come directly to your school, kindy or vacation care centre with a developmentally appropriate yoga program.
About our yoga classes
Our yoga program has no pre-set classes. Each class is tailored to the group of children within it, this allows each student to start at a level that is comfortable for them and which allows them to progress at their own pace. Different themes are introduced each week to ensure variety. Classes are highly interactive, not only between the teacher and students, but also between the students themselves.
If you are a children's educator and would like to include yoga into your school or kindy program please contact Magic Monkey Yoga Kids.
Testimonials:
I love that the children are always so eager and enthusiastic at every class. It caters to the children's needs from advanced to additional needs.
Jenny Suters, The Childcare Group
Every week Kim has kept the children interested by introducing games and activities that have been challenging and interactive to ensure they stay on task and are motivated. It has been clear that she has invested a lot of time and effort in the preparation of her lessons. Her instructions for the students have always been clear and concise....I would highly recommend Kim as a yoga instructor at any school.
Ms Martinez, primary school teacher SCECGS Redlands
We loved the student orientated activities, flexibility with the needs of the class, good class management and kept student focus. Kim was terrific. Great program.
Stewart House School
The classes have lots of variety of stretches and activities. The instructions are clear - the kids can both see and hear what they need to do. Having individual and group/partner segments helps break it up, along with some music and games. The yoga certainly assists the kids to focus and they also benefit from the stretches and exercises.
Ian Robinson, Mosman After School Care
The classes were well organised and orchestrated. Kim is a very calm person and has a good influence on the children.
J. Chi, North Sydney Vacation Care
The children are very excited and eager to do yoga that throughout the day they do and show some of the movements to the other children. There is also some calmness after they do yoga and they are more relaxed throughout the day.
Antonia Eames , Inner City Child Care
Kim makes the children feel really comfortable and they have lots of fun. The kids have really enjoyed the variety of yoga related games.
Naomi Upton , St Ives Park Primary School
Kim is always gentle and encouraging towards children and patient with 'busier' children. I really like the way classes wrap up as it helps children relax and calm down.
Ada Chin, Posh Kosh Preschool
Great use of music in session. Good progression, all the students were able to see improvements and able to participate. Group and individual work was good so students could extend themselves and work with friends.
Randal Wakefield, Forsyth Park Vacation Care
The classes provide the children with different variation of physical exercise which is centred around relaxation and control. Yoga is not an activity taken on by children very regularly - but it is a positive for them to experience this.
Chris Hillege, Gordon East OSHC
Our kids really enjoyed all aspects of the classes.
Rob Wilson, Waverley Vacation Care
"We love the yoga classes because it's another form of music and movement for the children. Kim keeps them engaged with the magical journeys that they all go on each week.
Emma, Albert Hall Preschool
Kim's involvement with the children is great.
Jessica Marsh, Collaroy Plateau After School Care
Kim was excellent at relating to the children using props and appropriate language. She held the children's attention very well.
Karen Hajinikitas , Manly Council Vacation Care
The children can relate easily to the moves eg through animals like dog.
Chantelle Whiting, Atchison Cottage Child Care
Great to have all the different stretches and the games.
