A Yoga Bears teacher comes directly to your childcare or early learning centre and delivers age-appropriate yoga, movement, breathing and mindfulness sessions.

Participating centres receive access to additional Yoga Bears resources designed to support educators, children and families between sessions.

Kids Yoga Incursions for Childcare Centres
Looking for a childcare incursion that children love and educators don't have to plan? Yoga Bears brings a trained kids yoga teacher into your centre every week, so every room gets a fun, calming movement session without adding work for your team.
Unlike a one off show that visits once a year, a Yoga Bears incursion is a regular part of your program. Children build real skills week after week: balance, coordination, body awareness, breathing, and the ability to settle their bodies after active play.
What Happens in a Yoga Bears Session
Every session is play based and built around the age group in the room. Children move through animal poses, yoga stories, music, partner games and simple breathing activities, then finish with a short relaxation. Our teachers adjust the pace for babies, toddlers and preschoolers, from Baby Bears (6 months to 1 year) right through to Mighty Bears (5 to 6 years).
Why Centres Choose Yoga Bears
No preparation for educators
We arrive, run the session and leave the room calmer than we found it.
Linked to the Early Years Learning Framework
Sessions support EYLF Outcome 3, children have a strong sense of wellbeing, along with Quality Area 1 of the National Quality Standard.
Calmer transitions
Children learn breathing and mindfulness tools they can use at rest time, before meals and during big emotions.
Inclusive for every child
No experience or special ability needed. Every child can join in at their own level.
Something to share with families
Parents love hearing that their child did yoga today, and children love showing off their favourite poses at home.
Fun Movement Games That Keep Children Engaged
Kids yoga with Yoga Bears is not quiet stretching on a mat. Sessions are full of movement games children ask for again and again, like animal adventures, freeze games and balance challenges. Many educators pick up these games and use them on rainy days and during group time between sessions.
