Recognised certification for kids yoga teachers

OUR FOUNDATION COURSE

  • Professional Certification

    Full certification is included in the price of the training. To certify, you submit a video of your teaching for appraisal and personal feedback by Jaime - whenever you're ready.

    5000 students have taken this training - and over 1500 have opted to graduate fully and are now teaching professionally under their own brand names as Cosmic Kids-certified teachers.

  • Learn at your own pace

    You get lifetime access to the training, so you are welcome to spend as long as you like doing the learning.

    On average, most students spend something like 20 to 25 hours on the training in total, spread across 2 or more months, so the learning really sinks in. If you want to move more quickly or you need to pause at any point, you can! It's all up to you.

  • A lovely network!

    Every student gets immediate lifetime membership of the Cosmic Kids Campus private Facebook Group.

    This connects you with Jaime and more than a thousand other supportive kids yoga teachers with great ideas, solid experience and helpful resources.

Along with the other courses as well about Classroom Management and the business side of things as well, it's really given me the confidence to start my own children's yoga business and it's going so well.

STILL HAVE QUESTIONS?

    🎓 About the Course

  • The course prepares you to teach children aged 2–11, including toddlers and tweens.

  • Video-based learning, 115 posture demos, downloadable class plans, child development and anatomy insights, and personal video feedback from Jaime.

  • You’ll be equipped to teach story-based yoga to kids, using the Cosmic Kids method — fun, safe, and combining traditional yoga with storytelling.

  • You can say you’re trained by Cosmic Kids and use our class structure and methods. You can also use your certification badge in any of your marketing materials. But the Cosmic Kids name and logo are trademarked and can’t be used for personal branding.

  • Yes – you can download the videos to your device to watch offline.

  • Yes! You’ll get a couple of example downloadable class plans for different age groups — including a full script for Squish the Fish. If you need more class plans, consider adding our Class Plan Mega Bundle option, which will be offered to you at the checkout.

  • No! Jaime has certified loads of yoga teachers that submitted their assessment in their preferred language. 

    Jaime knows the story of Squish so well, that it's not necessary in order to review your submission.

  • 💼 Requirements & Certification

  • No previous qualifications are needed. All you need is a love for yoga and a desire to teach kids.

  • Yes — professional liability insurance is essential. Most providers accept our training for coverage. 

    Schools or private venues in most countries will ask you for your insurance certificate. It shows them that you are covered if someone hurts themselves while under your care. It costs around $100 a year. 

    With an increasing number of insurers you can just phone up and say "I’ve done Cosmic Kids teacher training" - and they’ll know who you’re talking about - we are starting to have that kind of profile and we keep a list of insurers who know us.

  • No — this training stands alone and does not require registration with those organisations to teach kids yoga.

  • Nope! You don’t need to be a certified adult yoga teacher — just someone who enjoys yoga themselves.

  • Yes — you can log the hours as non-contact Continuing Education with Yoga Alliance.

  • 📆 Time & Cost

  • You can move at your own pace. Most people finish in a few weeks, but you have lifetime access.

  • All of our graduates agree that the course offers great value, and it gets 5* reviews across the board - so we're sure you will find the value once you enrol. 

    Remember, we also offer a 30-day money-back guarantee, so there's really no risk!

    To get the most value from the course though, consider The Working Kids Yoga Teacher Bundle, which contains the follow-on courses and will save you $150.

  • ✅ After Certification

  • Yes! Many of our graduates go on to teach in schools, studios, clubs and more.

  • You can say you’re trained by Cosmic Kids and use our class structure and methods. You can also use your Certified Cosmic Kids Yoga Teacher badge that you will receive from Jaime on any of your marketing materials including your website. But the Cosmic Kids name and logo are trademarked and can’t be used for personal branding.

  • Yes, you’ll need professional liability insurance to teach kids yoga professionally in most countries.

    Most schools, studios, or venues will ask for a copy of your insurance certificate — it simply shows that you’re covered in the unlikely event someone gets injured while in your care.

    The good news? It’s affordable, typically around $100 per year. And in all our years of training and teaching, we’ve never heard of anyone needing to make a claim.

  • Although finding insurance after doing our online course is your responsibility,  you are not alone. Our online Facebook community of more than 3500 students and teachers of kids yoga may be able to help you. You will also find insurers easily by doing internet searches. We have found specialist insurers (for teachers and fitness professionals) are most likely to cover you - especially if you talk them through the training and the appraisal process. 

    With an increasing number of insurers you can just phone up and say "I’ve done Cosmic Kids teacher training" - and they’ll know who you’re talking about - we are starting to have that kind of profile and we keep a list of insurers who know us.
