Presentation
Yoga in Classe Method is the result of ten-year experience in Yoga projects for children proposed in the Italian public schools.
The added value of the Yoga in Classe program is that it teaches children practical mindfulness exercises that will help them throughout their lives.
With the Yoga in Classe program, the teacher is immediately able to involve, excite, amaze and intrigue children in the magical world of the fundamental life values.
In fact, Yoga in Classe is a highly educational program because (unlike many theoretical courses) it teaches in a practical way how to live the universal values of Yoga in everyday life.
The Yoga in Classe Teacher Training School is the first Italian Online Training School that has developed from scratch a Yoga course for primary school students that has managed to obtain proven results in terms of:
- Greater concentration: Students have improved their ability to concentrate during classes while reducing their distractions
- Better self-discipline: Skilled students learn to self-evaluate and this allows teachers to create procedures for refinement and continuous improvement in their teaching style
- Greater awareness: Students become excellent self-observers and learn to appreciate the qualities of others.
- Better relaxation skills: The program increases emotional intelligence, that is, the ability to recognize, manage, prevent emotions such as anger, fear, performance anxiety and so on.
MISSION OF THE SCHOOL
The mission of the School is to educate students to be part of the Leadership of tomorrow so that with their example of life and their talents they can improve a small part of the world.
We are also convinced that every child is born with a specific “mission” (Sva-Dharma) to be fulfilled on earth and for this reason we are committed to awakening their highest potential to put them in the best condition to fulfill their mission.
YOGA EXERCISES IN THE CLASSROOM
The exercises are simple, carefully designed and have the real ability to solve the typical problems of primary school students such as:
- Agitation and restlessness
- Lack of concentration
- Maladaptive behaviors
- Difficulty in acquiring transversal skills
- Distraction errors
- Demotivation
Furthermore, once that the routine is fully operational, the exercises only last 10 minutes a day, which is a great added value!
Unlike other courses on Life skills that are too often theoretical and impractical, Yoga in Classe is helping many teachers to obtain excellent results with their students by concretely improving the performance of their teaching.
Yoga in the classroom is practiced among the desks, with shoes, without a mat, it does not require teachers to have previous experiences in Yoga and, thanks to the practical tutorials to show to the students, it is possible to start teaching in the classroom immediately.
THE EDUCATIONAL STORIES OF THE WISE FOX ARJUNA
All the exercises of the Basic Course are built around 12 educational stories about the Wise Fox Arjuna and his many teachings for his friends of the forest.
This character represents the archetype of the inner Master who will guide the childrenstep by step towards the discovery of themselves and their potential. The Yoga in Classe educational stories have been designed in the smallest detail to reach the heart of your children with a simple and clear educational message which is expendable in any educational context (homework, group work, preparation for a test, etc ..)
Selection of 12 Primary School Teachers
The Teacher Training School Yoga in Classe is working on introducing the method also in the UK. That’s why the Team has decided to offer some free training courses in order to review and publish the results obtained with English students. The aim is to transfer the great improvements that Italian teachers obtained with their classes, also to the English students (You can click HERE to listen to the real experiences told by Italian teachers).
