You're passionate about teaching
You want to help your students regulate themselves, stay engaged, and thrive at school and throughout their lives. And you NEED ways to bring calm and focus into your classroom.
BUT:
You spend so much time and energy managing your group, struggling to capture and keep your students' attention, that you barely have a minute for anything else. You need sure-fire methods for classroom management. (I know, I've been there!)
Your patience wears thin quickly-you struggle to keep yourself calm and grounded while managing your highly distractible students' short attention spans
The children you work with are often dysregulated-they have lots of Big Feelings, and no tools to bring their systems back online-and you're not sure how to help
You have so much on your plate that taking care of yourself keeps getting put on the back burner-after you've taken care of everything (and everyone) else
You understand that mindfulness practices are powerful and effective for children-you might even know of the research that points directly to better emotional regulation, an increased ability to focus, and positive academic outcomes-but aren't sure what resources to use, or how to incorporate them into the classroom
Imagine if you could...
Have an arsenal of tried-and-true classroom management methods at your fingertips-quickly capturing and keeping students' attention, creating a calm, focused classroom
Go from frazzled and stressed out to calm and centered with simple, effective (and quick) tools, so you have the patience to handle the ups and downs in the classroom-with plenty of bandwidth left for yourself and your own family at the end of the day
Help children learn to regulate their bodies and emotions, so they develop the self-awareness to recognize when they need to use mindfulness tools on their own, stopping challenging behaviors in their tracks
Incorporate simple practices to take care of yourself that are doable, practical, and fit into your real life-"putting your oxygen mask on first," so to speak
Oh, and have more FUN in your classroom!
You CAN.
I've got you!
Meet Your Mentor
Hey, I'm Kira.
I've been teaching kids' mindfulness, yoga-based movement, and music for more than 17 years-from toddlers to tweens, from partner yoga to family classes, from mindfulness workshops to huge Rockin' Yoga performances with 500 children in a school gym. I've taught and presented in more schools than I can possibly count.
I've written six children's mindfulness books, including the bestselling Breathe Like a Bear, which has been published in 17 languages; spoken on the TEDx stage on children's mindfulness, and I train educators all over the world.
My kids' mindfulness songs & yoga songs from my six full-length albums have been streamed more than 36 MILLION times.
You may have seen me on…
Along the way, I realized the best way for me to reach more children with the benefits of mindfulness was to train the teachers.
The person with the primary relationship with the child has the BEST chance of teaching them tools to thrive that will stick. That's YOU.
My passion is helping teachers bring mindfulness-incorporating movement and music-into the classroom.
Not only do I have extensive resources to offer (and I'm constantly making more-I have another children's mindfulness book AND another album on the way) but I've created countless proven, kid-friendly, super-effective mindfulness activities, and developed an arsenal of techniques and tools for keeping students engaged and focused in the classroom.
But I remember being where you are right now, in the classroom with no tools for capturing students' attention.
When I first started teaching, I spent TONS of time on my lesson plans-flipping through books for ideas, looking online for resources, and then trying to figure out how to use them.
But honestly? Most of my time was occupied trying to keep students engaged and ready to learn. (You feel me, right?)
So trust me, I know what it's like to rush into the room to teach, frazzled from the craziness of the morning with your own kids (I have three, and when they were little, mornings were not our strong suit).
I understand the isolation of feeling that you're in this alone, that friends and colleagues are not sure what this mindfulness business is all about.
I've certainly been close to losing my mind in a room full of kids bouncing off the walls.
This is why I'm inviting you to join me for this new training course. I've put everything I've learned, all the tools and techniques I've developed, and all the resources I've created over the past 17 years into this course.
It's everything you need to Calm Your Classroom.
It's WAY MORE Than Just Another Training
This is not simply about teaching children how to breathe. It's about equipping them with the tools they need to thrive throughout their lives.
And it's not just for them-it's for you, too. Teacher burnout is at an all-time high, and you need simple, doable practices to keep you from going bonkers, am I right?
Benefits to YOU
Reduced stress, overwhelm, and burnout
More patience
Greater compassion
A more effective and productive classroom
Benefits to the Children You Serve
Improved attention
Emotional regulation
Social-emotional skills, such as empathy and compassion
Decreased anxiety and stress
That's why I've also included lots of tools for YOU in this course. We'll talk about why it's so incredibly important to take care of yourself first. I'll teach you practical, real-life practices to make self-care a habit, so you can be the educator you want to be-the one you imagined you'd be from the start of your career-and make the impact you're meant to make in your students' lives.

You Don't Have to Do It Alone
The fact that you're still reading this is evidence you believe strongly in the power of mindful practices to help children thrive, and that you deeply desire support in incorporating mindfulness into your classroom.
I've been where you are. I learned the hard way what every teacher knows-you can plan the greatest lesson in the world, but if you don't have the attention in the room, you're not going to get anywhere.
If your students' brains aren't in a "ready to learn" state, they're not going to be able to focus on what you're teaching.
Simple, fun, engaging mindfulness practices can make an enormous difference in calming the atmosphere in your classroom. They're incredibly effective, and easy to implement-once you know how.
Let me teach you my very best tools and my most engaging mindful activities. I can save you precious time trying to figure it out yourself, and give you tons of resources and ideas you can implement right away. (And you'll have the support of a community of like-minded educators who have your back.)
Let me help you calm your classroom.
I hope you'll join me!
