RYE UK - TRAINING

RYE uses simple yoga techniques - postures, breathing, relaxation and concentration in small amounts throughout the lesson to improve learning. These techniques help to unify the body with the mind, and create harmony within the classroom amongst peers and the teacher. The RYE techniques can be integrated into many situations, in the classroom, P.E. lessons, at home or as part of a yoga class.

 

A key part to all RYE training is to experience yoga for yourself and the benefits it brings. The Foundation Module and EURYE consists of regular yoga classes and relaxation so you can develop your own practice on a personal level, which helps you to deliver the techniques more confidently within the classroom.

Testimonials about RYE modules

 

I greatly enjoyed this module. I learnt more than I had expected and I feel it has provided me with a fantastic insight into how to make education holistic. It has improved my teaching and learning practice, particularly within the early years, and I am looking forward to continuing to use the techniques with my own class when I enter the teaching profession in September 2009 as a newly qualified teacher.
Hannah Churchill, Primary and Early Years PGCE student, Bath Spa University, RYE UK Foundation Module 2009

 

RYE embedded positive techniques into my planning and practice and had a huge impact on how I taught. I loved the fact that RYE was based on a particularly thoughtful and reflective approach to education and focused on connecting emotionally to children. I was fully committed to looking at education in a holistic manner but before RYE was struggling with how I could achieve this in the mainstream education system with its overriding emphasis on academic achievement. RYE has provided an entrance point. I did feel that doing the RYE course made me a more competent and confident teacher. I also feel it changed children's feelings about how and what they learnt.
Yvette McLoughlin, Early Years PGCE student, Bath Spa University, RYE UK Foundation Module 2009

 

The RYE approach to yoga in education empowers educators to integrate simple practices that can be used at different times of the day for different purposes within their classroom to improve learning. The techniques are adaptable for a range of ages and educational settings and can be used across the curriculum and throughout the school day.
Beatrice Adie, Early Years and Primary PGCE, RYE UK Foundation Module 2009
