The Breathe & Learn Facilitator Program

Become a Breathe & Learn Facilitator and use yoga and mindfulness to create nurturing, mindful spaces for kids to flourish and thrive!

What is Breathe & Learn?

Breathe & Learn is a curriculum-based yoga and mindfulness program for elementary and middle-school children. Our mission is to create a positive and safe environment where students can be self reflective and use yoga and mindfulness as tools to strengthen their emotional intelligence.

The curriculum was designed through the lens of emotional intelligence and yoga, and focuses on four main skills: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness and relationship management. All weekly topics support the development of these four core skills. The first half of the curriculum focuses on the personal competency skills, while the second half addresses the social competency skills.

What are the Benefits of Breathe & Learn?

Emotional Awareness: The combination of mindfulness and yoga work helps students identify and regulate emotions. We nurture emotional intelligence through discussions and activities centered around the weekly topics. Building strong self-awareness and social awareness are at the core of our program.

Stress Management: The movement and relaxation portion of class gives students the time and space to release energy and slow down. They learn breathing exercises, visualizations and postures they can use outside of the yoga studio.

Sense of Self: The journaling portion and weekly topics support students in developing a true sense of self.

Physical Development: Students practice postures and play games which require balance and hand-eye coordination. They also learn to connect breath and movement.

Positive Relationships: Small-group work and partner postures provide opportunities for students to build and maintain relationships with their peers and teachers.

Creativity: Yoga flows, stories and games engage imaginations and offer an alternative way for students to practice and showcase their yoga knowledge.
