Practical transformation
The Full Journey is not just more training. It is a bigger becoming.
Rainbow Yoga combines play, structure and humanity so you can guide children with more presence, creativity and care.
More to see
A bigger pathway should feel alive before you begin
The Full Journey is practical, human and embodied. You are choosing depth, range and a community-minded way of teaching.
Watch the feeling
Start by feeling Level 1, then choose the complete pathway.
The Full Journey begins with the joyful foundation and carries you into the broader Level 2 range, so you are not buying more content; you are choosing a deeper becoming.

A short page can only say so much. These videos let you feel the movement, laughter, teamwork and teaching style before you decide.
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.
One connected pathway
Level 1 Gives You the Foundation. Level 2 Gives You the Range.
Choose the Full Journey when you already know that a first step is not your final destination. The pathway moves from building joyful, coherent classes into broader work across ages, families, schools, teens, inclusion and more complex group dynamics.
Level 1 foundations
Build practical class journeys using movement, play, stories, breath, mindfulness, partner work and group connection.
Level 2 depth
Expand your teaching range, adaptability and judgement for wider ages, settings and participation needs.
Clear teaching roles
Gopala leads the core pathway. Dharak leads the Anatomy and Physiology component.
Two level certificates
Level 1 and Level 2 certificates are issued after the published completion requirements for each level are met.
Learning you can use
What you will be able to put into practice
This is not about memorising activities. It is about understanding them well enough to adapt with care.

Use movement, games, stories, partner work, breathing and mindfulness with purpose
Teach across wider ages, families, schools, teens and community settings

Is this for you?
Choose the Complete Pathway for the Right Reason
A strong fit if you…
- Already know you want both Level 1 and Level 2 rather than testing only the first step.
- Want a broad practical toolbox for different ages, settings and group needs.
- Prefer a self-paced pathway you can move through around work and family.
- Value play, cooperation, inclusion and human connection more than physical performance.
A smaller first step may be wiser if…
- You are still exploring whether kids yoga teaching is right for you.
- You need only the Level 1 foundation for your current role or goal.
- You are seeking a clinical, medical or allied-health qualification.
- You expect a certificate to guarantee insurance, employment or registration everywhere.

Customer Reviews
I'm currently at half of level 1 and i'm very happy. There are videos, pictures, written explanation... A lot of useful contents! It's a little bit challenging for me because i'm italian so i have to concentrate and i need time to do the homeworks. But there are subtitles that helped me when i didn't understand a word.
