Nope! However, we do recommend that trainees have a basic understanding of yoga and mindfulness. If you don’t already have a personal practice and aren’t sure where to start, reach out for suggestions. We’re happy to help!

Our program is designed for anyone who loves children and yoga! Trainees are educators, parents, therapists, kids yoga teachers looking to expand their skill set, adult yoga teachers and practitioners, childcare providers, school administrators, P.E. teachers, camp counselors, community organizers, grandparents, librarians, social workers, mental health professionals, dentists, dance teachers, coaches, and more.

Yes! Tucson Kids Yoga is committed to increasing diversity, equity and inclusivity in the children's yoga community and acknowledges the importance of children seeing themselves represented in their teachers. As part of this commitment, we offer a limited number of partial scholarships to BIPOC, people who identify as LGBTQIA+, and people from underrepresented groups. Scholarships are offered on a first-come first-served basis.

To apply for a scholarship, please email a brief description of why you qualify and why you’re interested in teaching Kids Yoga to hello@tucsonkidsyoga.com

We are not. While our Teacher Training is aligned with Yoga Alliance’s content standards, we view their registration as exclusionary and unnecessary to skillfully and successfully teach yoga to children. Training graduates are hired to teach classes at schools, studios, community centers, and other locations based on their knowledge, professionalism, and dedication, not on Yoga Alliance registration or affiliation.
