Mini-Workshops for Educators and Professionals
CALMING KIDS provides 2 hour workshops for educators, youth professionals, and parents
to learn simple stress-management strategies to implement with students. Workshops are
held at the CALMING KIDS studio in Boulder, Colorado.
Classes are offered after-school and on
weekends throughout the year. A variety of topics will be introduced, including: breathing 101,
non-violent communication techniques for a peaceful classroom, yoga postures for strength
and stress-reduction, relaxation techniques for calming students, cultivating compassionate
students, and self-care practices for effective classroom management.
Mini-Workshops are a great opportunity for those unable to attend the weekend training
program, or for those who wish to add additional tools to their CALMING KIDS Educator tool
box.
