How The Karma Class can help
Our Karma Classroom Program is developed specifically for teachers and their students to relieve stress, create calm, build resilience and support physical strength and flexibility.
Founded on the principles and practice of yoga, breath and mindfulness, and cognisant of the demands placed on teachers, it has been specifically designed to be:
- easy to learn (learning by doing)
- easy to implement (just minutes each day in the classroom)
- easy to extend outside the classroom (portable life skills)
We believe early intervention is key. These tools are intended to help young people live positive, happy and sustainable lives as they grow up and find their roles in a fast-changing and unpredictable world.
Training and supporting principals and teachers is pivotal to our work.


We seek to inspire fundamental changes in the practice of early childhood and primary learning in the classroom

The Karma Classroom is a 4 hour online workshop delivered to early childhood and primary school teachers, counselors, therapists and other professionals working with children.

"As a teacher, life can be very stressful. The training with the Karma Classroom Cards makes it so easy … we can do 5 minutes and it completely changes the environment of the whole classroom. The breaths and poses relax me and lets me be the best teacher I can be. And the kids just love it."
