Breath Circle School Teacher Training + 6 Week Program

A$3,300.00

Teacher Training

Our Teacher Training in schools offers professional development to teaching staff. We aim to increase staff mental-health and wellbeing by fostering connection, resilience and self-regulation.

We train teachers to feel confident to teach the mindful breathing practice in the classroom as a daily exercise, empowering them to create healthy habits with themselves and their students. This training results in teachers adapting their teaching practice to include mindful breathing, making it an ongoing daily practice. Students are then able to continue practicing mindful breathing with their teachers in the classroom.

This ongoing nature of this practice is the strength of our program, as it allows the benefits of mindful breathing and self-regulation to extend far beyond the 10 sessions. Students and teachers are equipped with a skill for life.

Information Session

Our Information Session offers an introduction to mindful breathing to empower students, parents and teachers to use breath awareness as a tool for self-regulation, allowing them to better handle stress and control impulses, resulting in calm, harmonious classrooms.

6 Week Program

Breath Circle’s 6-week program involves working with students for one session per week. During the 50minute sessions conducted by a trained and experienced facilitator, students will use movement, mindful breathing and sound, to create clear minds, regulate emotions, and improve focus in the classroom. It will support them to develop greater self-awareness and emotional regulation, which can have positive impacts on their personal relationships, education and learning, and sense of wellbeing.

These engaging, practical workshops aim to guide students and teachers to ‘drop in’ and connect to their breath, to experience the power of breath to reduce stress and anxiety, and to increase resilience and self-awareness. Our Programs create community connection, enhancing community participation and empowering individuals to be resourceful in relation to their own mental health and wellbeing as well as the health and wellbeing of their community.

Costing for Teacher Training / Information Session / 10 Week Program is dependant on the number of students and sessions required.
