Giving Back

Yoga helps to change children’s lives by giving them the skills to look after their mental and physical health. Through the hundreds of wonderful and inspiring yogis that we have trained at Wild Tree Training School we reach thousands of children every year with these tools for well-being in the UK, US, Europe and Asia. However we know that too many children around the world are unable to access the life changing experience of yoga and do not receive adequate love, support and opportunities to play in their daily lives.

At Wild Tree Yoga we are proud to donate a percentage of profits from our Training School to support vulnerable children in their community to give them the opportunity to develop their unique strengths and skills. This year we are working with one of our graduates to set up the first Yoga Studio in a South African Township to provide therapeutic yoga for vulnerable children.

Noni, who grew up in the township of Alexandra. completed her Foundation Children’s Yoga Teacher Training with Wild Tree Yoga in 2023 on a full bursary and is now creating a project to bring life changing skills of yoga to the children growing up in her community. The Alexandra Township in Johannesburg has nearly a million residents with extremely high levels of poverty, unemployment and hunger. With your support for our Training courses we can bring Noni’s dream alive to support the township children in Alexandra.

Bursaries

We offer two bursaries place on every Teacher Training Course we run. These are aimed at Teachers in the UK or worldwide who are struggling to meet the cost of training and who wish to make a difference for deprived children in their communities. Please contact us for an application form if you wish to apply for a bursary places. Our goal is to provide high quality training free for teachers who can pass on the gift of yoga to thousands of children growing up in poverty.

OUR APPROACH TO WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP

Child Focused 

Children's Yoga Tree aims to make yoga and mindfulness accessible to children from all backgrounds in the UK. 

Yoga promotes physical and emotional well-being. It develops children's ability to achieve in all areas of life through increased focus, confidence and optimum health.  We work with charity partners and funders to make this goal possible and allow all children in the UK to access high quality, affordable yoga classes.

Community Development

We connect with partner organisations in the UK and internationally in the field of education, health and sport to share our expertise in children's yoga teaching. Our goal is to create an international network of children's yoga teachers in inner city, rural and deprived communities to improve the outcomes for vulnerable children.
