Resources
We use a multitude of resources in our programs. Parents can also use these resources as a way to introduce emotions and co-regulation skills to their young children.
Our Storybook and Yoga Cards have been created to help children explore how they feel when emotions arise and then teach them specific yoga poses to deal with them.

My 8yr old enjoyed Jess’ class and her gentle manor. He said it was good to stretch his body, the class had a good flow and he felt relaxed to start his home learning day. The meditation messages were good too : I am safe, I am brave, I am loved, I am happy.
My kids loved this class – kept them so engaged and they had lots of fun while moving 🙂
Jess was really great at engaging all the kids! Loved how it focused on breathing, the stretching as well as feelings. Would definitely highly recommend Essential Being Kid’s Yoga.
