Hi, I’m Bryony
Founder and Creator of YogaBeez
My journey to children's yoga started over 2 decades ago when I trained as a Montessori teacher. Driven by demands from society, the education system and being over stimulated by the ever growing pace of technology, the children seemed unable to focus, enjoy the present moment and even sleeping was challenging. Time for YOGA!
Starting more as an experiment I started to incorporate some simple yoga techniques and relaxation into my classroom and noticed within a short space of time how profoundly this was benefiting the children, the teacher, the parents and indeed, my own teaching.
After studying and practicing various forms of adult, teen and children's yoga, mindfulness and meditation I created YogaBeez and started teaching yoga full time.
The YogaBeez ethos has always been to empower, educate and exercise the WHOLE child whilst incorporating all aspects of yoga into each class.
Ive been so fortunate to train with some incredible teaches - Jon Kabat Zinn, Thich Nhat Hanh, Richard Miller, Judith Lasater, Donna Farhi, Rod Stryker but above all these, it’s the children who have taught me the most.
After many years of teaching, observing and learning I went on to write the YogaBeez Foundation and Advanced children’s yoga teacher trainings – I just had so much to share.
The course combines traditional yoga, mindfulness and Montessori philosophy and pedagogy. Ever-evolving the training training has taken me globally, where I've been fortunate enough to train hundreds of teachers, who are now sharing yoga and mindfulness with children of all ages and abilities in all parts of the world. I'd love to share with you too!
