What is Rainbow Yoga?
Human Mandala
Family Yoga
Evidence-informed joy
Play is not a decoration. It is serious learning wearing a brighter outfit.
Research on school mindfulness, yoga, movement, guided play and educational relationships points toward something Rainbow Yoga has practised for decades: children learn best when they feel safe, active, connected and invited to participate.
Yoga and mindfulness, adapted for children
Reviews of school-based yoga and mindfulness describe promising outcomes for attention, self-regulation and wellbeing, with an important caution: study quality varies, and the practice must be age-appropriate.
Play with purpose
Guided-play research supports a balance of child choice and sensitive adult guidance. That is why our games have intention, adaptation and reflection, not just noise and movement.
Relationship is part of the method
Research on belonging and teacher-student relationships links supportive connection with stronger social, emotional and learning outcomes. Rainbow Yoga trains adults to lead connection, not just poses.
We do not promise medical or therapeutic outcomes. We teach practical, human, adaptable tools you can use within your professional, family or community role.
Learning you can use
What you will be able to put into practice

Build the foundation, then keep the ideas flowing
The Essentials Package combines Level 1 Online Kids Yoga Teacher Training with Rainbow Yoga Class Builder access.
This is a practical starting point for caring adults who want the Rainbow Yoga foundation and a creative planning tool beside them. Level 1 teaches the core method: movement, play, stories, breath, mindfulness, relaxation, partner work and group connection. Class Builder helps you turn those tools into complete kids yoga classes you can create, save, adapt and improve.
What is included
- Level 1 Online Kids Yoga Teacher Training: the joyful foundation for teaching kids yoga with confidence, creativity and care.
- Rainbow Yoga Class Builder: access to the AI planning studio, Gopala class plan library, Movement Studio, community creations, printable plans and activity improvement tools.
- Ready-to-use support: explore real class plans, start from your own theme, and ask the app to make activities more fun, meaningful, social, calming, energetic or age-appropriate.
Why this package works
Level 1 gives you the method. Class Builder helps you keep using it after training, especially when you need a fresh class plan, a new theme, a better transition, a pose idea, a game, a breathing practice or a calmer ending.
Before purchasing
Choose this package if you want a strong beginning plus ongoing planning support. Choose Level 1 alone if you only want the training. Choose the Full Journey or Complete Rainbow Yoga Pathway if you already know you want Levels 1 and 2 together.
After checkout
Shopify confirms the purchase and the current access instructions follow by email. Use the same email address for the Class Builder that you use at checkout so app access can open smoothly.
