Namaste Kids is about so much more than yoga poses. 🩵

Yes, we move and practise yoga - but our sessions are also about helping children move, slow down, connect and build practical wellbeing tools.

Depending on the group, you might see us exploring:
✨movement and balance
✨ breathing and relaxation
✨ sensory and mindfulness activities
✨ rhythm and music
✨️ group discussions and reflections
✨ emotional awareness
✨ cooperation and connection
✨ lots of play and laughter

The goal isn’t for children to be perfectly calm or perfectly still.

It’s to give them opportunities to notice their bodies, understand themselves a little better and practise tools they can take with them into everyday life.

Little tools, learnt early.

Hi, I’m Belinda - the person behind Namaste Kids.

I realised there are quite a few new faces around here, so I thought I’d properly introduce myself and share a little about why Namaste Kids exists.

Before Namaste Kids, much of my work with children and families happened when things were already really hard. When children had already met their crisis point. I would spend many sessions in counselling rooms supporting children through challenges in their journey.

I kept thinking… what if we could give children some of these tools earlier?

I wanted to create a space where kids could slow down.

Somewhere they could move, breathe, build confidence, connect and begin to understand their emotions and their bodies - without needing anything to be “wrong” first.

That’s really the heart of Namaste Kids.

🩵 Preventative wellbeing.

🩵 Practical tools.

🩵 Positive experinces and confidence in learning wellbeing habbits that become part of their life.

🩵 Small moments of connection and regulation that children can carry with them as they grow.

My background is in psychology, counselling and therapeutic work with children and families.
I’m also a qualified breathwork facilitator and yoga teacher and these days I bring all of that together through group connection, yoga, movement, mindfulness, rhythm and nervous - system informed practices.

You’ll find me in our little Baranduda studio, as well as popping up in early learning centres, schools, workplaces and across our community.

And behind the business? Still just me - usually surrounded by a million yoga mats, plants, drums, props and about 15 different ideas at once. 😂🩵

Thanks for being here.

Regulation isn't about being calm all the time...

It's about noticing what's happening inside your body, expressing emotions in safe and healthy ways, and finding your way back when life feels overwhelming.

Over time, children build a wider capacity to handle life's ups and downs.

They can stay present with bigger feelings without becoming completely overwhelmed...

🩵 When they do become dysregulated - as we all do, they learn that they can return.

That's what we practise at Namaste Kids.

Through movement, breathing, play and connection, we're not teaching children to suppress emotions - we're helping them build the lifelong skills to understand them.

One of the biggest surprises for many parents is that the relaxation at the end of class is often their child's favourite part.

After moving, playing, breathing and connecting, the children settle into a quiet moment of rest.

It's a chance to pause, reset and simply be.

In a busy world, these moments matter. 💙
