8-Week Yoga Programme
for Rangatahi (Youth)
Our flagship 8-Week Yoga Programme is implemented in collaboration with the school.
The programme is designed to support young people aged 10-18 as they navigate formative years of immense change within an uncertain world.
Each week a certified Y.E.S. Facilitator will visit your school to guide students through their immersion into personal Yoga practice.
Students finish the programme with practical tools and knowledge that support them to:
practice yoga for themselves every day,
understand how the mind works,
manage emotions,
deal with stress in healthy ways,
tune into their body and know how they are feeling,
have healthy relationships with their peers, and
feel their connectedness and place within the world around them.
During and after the programme students are supported with a comprehensive video library and a workbook to help them continue their personal daily practice.
The 8-Week Yoga Programme can be delivered in-person or fully online. The course is led by certified Y.E.S. Facilitators.
