Mindful Movement That ​Supports Learning & Behavior

Why Yoga in Schools Works

When students are taught how to regulate their breath, move their bodies, and calm their minds, it can have a powerful ripple effect on their focus, behavior, and emotional well-being. Yoga and mindfulness create space for students to process big emotions, release stress, and build resilience—without needing special equipment or major scheduling changes.

Root and Roar Yoga brings tools that students can use for a lifetime: to pause before reacting, to breathe through hard moments, and to trust their inner strength. These practices integrate easily into your school day, enriching both learning and classroom climate.

Workshops, Classes,
& Custom Programs

Whether you're looking to reduce student stress during testing season, support classroom focus, or offer meaningful enrichment activities, we’ll create a program that aligns with your school’s goals.

Our sessions can be delivered in-class, after school, or as a special event—and we adapt everything to the age group, group size, and setting. From calming breathing breaks to energizing movement games, each experience is crafted with care to support the whole child.

Need help engaging families or building schoolwide buy-in? We can also host family yoga nights, teacher wellness workshops, or principal-approved pilot series to introduce the benefits gently and effectively.

​We’ll help you bring movement, mindfulness, and meaningful connection into your school in a way that’s approachable, inclusive, and fun.

Developmentally Appropriate Yoga That Grows With Your Students

Tailored Programs for Every Age Group

Our yoga and mindfulness sessions are thoughtfully adapted to meet students where they are—physically, emotionally, and socially.

Rooted in SEL, Designed for Real-Life Growth

What Kids Learn
Through Our Programs

Our curriculum is grounded in Social-Emotional Learning and child development best practices. Every class introduces simple, powerful tools for navigating emotions, building healthy relationships, and feeling confident in one’s body and mind.

Each program we offer is built around affirmations and age-appropriate themes like “I Am Brave” (confidence), “I Am Calm” (emotional regulation), “I Am Kind” (empathy and compassion), and “I Am Focused” (attention and self-control). These messages are repeated through yoga poses, group games, breathwork, visualizations, storytelling, and sharing circles—so kids learn by doing, not just listening.

Alongside movement and mindfulness, students explore:
🌬️ Breathing exercises for calming down
💬 Affirmations to build self-worth
👂 Mindful listening and communication skills
📚 SEL storytelling woven into class themes
🧠 Tools to handle test stress, big emotions, and more

​Whether it’s a 6-week series or a one-time class, our lessons leave a lasting impact.

Playful + Purposeful — kids stay engaged while learning real-life tools

Integrated SEL — we blend mindfulness, movement, and mental wellness

Theme-Based Learning — each series focuses on a core emotional or social strength

Supporting kids starts with one mindful step.
