FAQs
-
Rising Yogis partners with secondary schools to support the wellbeing of students and staff through yoga and mindfulness. Classes are open to all young people, including neurodiverse and sensitive students.
-
Each session is thoughtfully tailored to the age group and energy in the room. We combine yoga-inspired movement, breathwork, mindfulness, and moments of stillness — always in a way that feels safe, accessible and enjoyable.
Sessions often include guided breathwork, mindfulness, and physical yoga practices such as vinyasa-inspired flow or restorative poses — alongside space for rest, reflection and regulation.
-
Not at all. Rising Yogis is for every body and every child — no experience, flexibility or fitness required. The emphasis is on wellbeing, not performance.
-
We offer sessions for:
• Teen Yogis (ages 11- 18)
Classes are always adapted to suit the age, needs and energy of the group.
I also offer CPD and wellbeing workshops for staff — please get in touch if your school would like to explore this.

Classes typically run between 45 or 60 minutes depending on the age group and setting. I’ll always let you know timings in advance when booking.

All children are welcome. I bring over a decade of experience working in secondary education, including in pastoral care, and I’m trained in trauma-informed approaches. My classes are inclusive, emotionally safe spaces where children can participate at their own pace.

-
In secondary schools, sessions often run as clubs or within PE lessons, where I teach the group independently. In community settings, I keep group sizes small and supportive, with a maximum of 12 children so everyone feels safe and seen. This helps create a nurturing, age-appropriate space for all.
-
That’s completely okay. Children are encouraged to join in at their own pace, and there’s never pressure to perform. Simply being present in a calm, regulated space can have a positive effect — even without active participation.
