Illinois schools are required to address child trauma as it shows up in the hallways and classrooms.
🤔 it’s important they address the physical AND mental aspects of trauma.
Body-based integration and resolution of the trauma response is a critical piece of addressing the behavioral effects of trauma.
👩🏫 Instructional Yoga Coaches work with staff and students to address the body’s self-preservation system that creates obstacles to learning.
📚 Yoga teachers must understand the structure and needs of schools.
😶🌫️ School Leaders need to understand the futility of teaching to a brain that is locked out of learning.
😌By applying teaching strategies that reach through the body’s fear response, schools can spend more time teaching and less time in crisis mode.

Some of the most misinterpreted information in education is how a school chooses to encourage students.
At School Yoga Coach we do not “reward” kids by humiliating, demeaning, or restraining adults.
It’s a bad example. It’s bad modeling.
And it’s a HUGE Trauma-trigger!
We follow 2 important rules: 1) No one is coerced 2) No one is excluded or isolated.
How do your PBIS /School Incentives match up?

Mindful Schools One Teacher at a Time
We believe that Mindful Teaching leads to Mindful Learning.
We work with schools, teachers, and families to align Social-Emotional Learning with the rigors and routines of a general education system. We teach school districts how to decrease punitive responses to students while increasing classroom engagement and secure relationships through mindfulness, attachment theory, and neuroscience.
By using our experience as classroom teachers, professional development presenters, and yoga practitioners, we train teachers to connect the body, heart, and mind of students in order to create peaceful classrooms and engaged learners.
We look forward to working with you!
