Money, Money, Money

I often get asked about money during and after the children’s yoga training courses.

I often find that children’s yoga is “cheaper” than yoga with adults, and I wonder why.

For one thing, working with children is a lot more challenging and also more responsible.

On the other hand, parents often pay much more for other things (see tennis, piano, etc.).

Children’s yoga teachers are generally well-trained and have invested money, time and a lot of love in their training, which should also be reflected monetarily.

In our children’s yoga, the children also receive real added value that often lasts a lifetime. In addition to movement vs. rest, we strengthen resilience, discover unique skills and abilities, promote imagination, work on proprioception and strengthen executive functions and self-confidence (to name just a few). So why do we sometimes think that children’s yoga shouldn’t cost anything? I think it’s important not to sell yourself short. Prices always depend on the location and, of course, what costs you have as a children’s yoga teacher. I can only encourage you to take a price that makes you feel good and appreciated, also monetarily. Of course, it’s also nice to do something charitable, no question. If you can, please do!

This is also a wonderful part of our togetherness, but not only! You as a children’s yoga teacher can also live well and treat yourself = loving self-care!

For community, with each other and for each other! Let’s work together to make this world a better place where our children like to live and are allowed to discover and live their individuality!

And let’s support each other in ensuring that children’s yoga is of high quality, because our children should be worth that to us, don’t you think!?Namaste
