About me
Hi, I’m Caroline Garland
I am fully certified children & adults yoga teacher and trainer.
Yogamoves4kids Teacher Training courses are full of fun and creativity, allowing children to connect to their bodies and minds.
I currently run trainings for schools, nurseries and a 3 day fully certified children’s yoga teacher training in Whitstable, Crawley, Canterbury & Belfast.
I have been practicing yoga for 25 years, I first stepped on a mat to try to find balance from the stresses of life, I soon noticed how happy my yoga mat made me feel.
As a primary school teacher teaching in classrooms for 25 years, in 2005 I decided to bring yoga into my own classroom. I soon discovered how beneficial yoga is to children’s well-being. Introducing children to the world of yoga is such a beautiful and positive journey.
Experience
In 2006, Yogamoves4kids classes was created to fit around my life as a mother of two children and I now teach in local Nurseries and Primary schools for 18 years in Kent.
With this experience and after many trainings in children’s yoga and SEN yoga, Yogamove4kids certified teacher training 3-day course was developed.
A foundation course to introduce yoga to children so you can support their wellbeing physically and mentally. Courses are online & in-person.
Living in Minnis Bay, overlooking one of the finest beaches on the North Kent coast, I also teach, adult yoga classes online and in-person.

TESTIMONIALS
“I have been working with Caroline for a large amount of years. Caroline is always happy, patient and caring towards all children. They enjoy Caroline coming in to the nursery and are always engaged in her classes. Caroline has a brilliant imagination which keeps every session alive and interesting. The children never get bored of her classes and always ask when she is visiting next.”
“Highly recommend Yogamoves 4 Kids. Caroline goes above and beyond to put you at ease, to answer any questions or concerns, and gives exceptional teaching and instructions. I not only learnt a lot on the 3-day course I did but I really enjoyed it! It was so much fun and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this course to others who are interested in wanting to teach yoga to children. I’m a trainee teacher, and I have left feeling more equipped and confident for my future career, as well as have lots of ideas and aspirations for taking this into classrooms and schools.
Fun, informative and exciting.”
