Ever had a day like this?
It’s been a long day, and you finally get a moment to sit down. But just as you do, your child’s emotions bubble over. Suddenly they're screaming, throwing things, hitting or just completely shutting down and wanting to do nothing except be soothed by screens. The frustration, the overwhelm, the not wanting to do anything but be on screens....it’s all so much. You try to stay calm, you tell them to take a deep breath, but it doesn't seem to help and you're just feeling so done.
What if, instead of these moments feeling like battles, you had a simple way to help your child build emotional regulation skills before the big feelings explode?
That’s where Family Yoga Game Night comes in.
This is a membership that focuses on playful, engaging yoga and mindfulness practices that help to build emotional regulation skills without the pressure.
You’re not forcing them to sit still or “calm down.” Instead, you’re exploring movement, breath, and fun games that naturally support their nervous system.
Because here’s the truth: A meltdown is not the time to teach regulation skills.
Kids learn best when they’re feeling good, not when they are already dysregulated. That’s why this practice is so powerful. You’re laying the foundation before the storm hits and building a better baseline of regulation for your child's nervous system.
The Science-Backed Benefits of Children's Yoga
Yoga isn’t just stretching—it’s a powerful tool for a child’s emotional, physical, and mental well-being. Research shows that practicing yoga can help children regulate their emotions, improve focus, and even support their learning.
Here’s why it works:
✨ Supports Emotional Regulation
Studies have found that yoga activates the parasympathetic nervous system (the “rest and digest” system), reducing cortisol (the stress hormone) and increasing dopamine and serotonin, which support mood balance. This helps children develop self-regulation skills, making it easier to manage frustration, anxiety, and big emotions.
✨ Builds Focus & Concentration
Mindful movement and breathwork strengthen the prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain responsible for focus, decision-making, and impulse control. A study published in Frontiers in Psychology found that yoga improves attention and executive function in children, especially those with ADHD.
✨ Enhances Social & Emotional Skills
Yoga encourages self-awareness, empathy, and communication, which are key components of emotional intelligence. Research in Early Child Development and Care suggests that children who practice yoga regularly develop greater emotional resilience and social skills.
✨ Improves Sleep & Reduces Anxiety
Yoga has been shown to reduce bedtime struggles and improve sleep quality by lowering heart rate and calming the nervous system. A study in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine found that mindfulness-based practices, including yoga, significantly improved sleep in children with insomnia or anxiety.
✨ Develops Strength, Coordination & Body Awareness
Unlike competitive sports, yoga allows children to move in a non-judgmental, exploratory way, improving motor skills, balance, flexibility, and strength. This physical confidence translates into improved self-esteem and comfort in their own bodies.
✨ Teaches Coping Strategies for Life
Yoga provides lifelong tools like deep breathing, grounding techniques, and mindful movement to help kids navigate stress, changes, and challenges. A study in Psychology Research and Behaviour Management found that children who practice yoga show fewer behavioural problems and greater emotional resilience compared to their peers.
Incorporating yoga into your child’s life isn’t just about movement—it’s about giving them skills they can use forever to navigate emotions, build confidence, and find calm in a busy world. 💛

Why This Membership Is Different
Most kids' yoga programs focus on watching a screen and following along—but Family Yoga Game Night is about real connection, not just another online class.
There is no flashy graphics, it's just me sharing yoga with you from my own messy, imperfect home, with my kid's some times interrupting to ask for snacks 😂
These are resources I have put together not only as a family yoga teacher but also as a parent. I know what works, not just in a beautiful yoga studio but in the chaos of everyday, real life.
This membership is designed to get you and your child moving, playing, and practicing together in a way that feels fun and natural.
It's not just about yoga poses—it’s about helping you build the skills to hold space for your child’s emotional regulation through playful, engaging practices that fit into real life.
🧡 Less Screen Time, More Connection – even when we are connecting on zoom, the focus is on you practicing together, deepening your bond while developing essential self-regulation skills. It's about coming together as a community and feeling supported exactly as you are - even if your child doesn't do any yoga poses and just wants to pull funny faces at the screen - it's all welcome 😂
🎲 Play-Based Learning – Yoga games, movement challenges, and mindfulness activities make emotional regulation fun and interactive, so kids actually want to practice these skills. Not only do we have our live sessions but you'll also be learning fun ways to practice together between live sessions - either repeating practices you did in class together or diving into the resource library inside the membership.
💡 Empowering You as a Parent – You’ll gain confidence in guiding your child through simple but powerful yoga and mindfulness techniques, so these tools become part of your family’s routine.
🌱 Building Emotional Resilience Over Time – We know that the middle of a meltdown is not the time to teach regulation skills. This membership lays the foundation in a playful, low-pressure way, so your child has the tools they need when big emotions hit.
This isn’t just a yoga class—it’s a space to create meaningful moments with your child while giving them (and yourself!) the skills to navigate emotions with more ease. 💛
What Families Are Saying
"My twins are autistic and getting them to sit still is a struggle but doing this together centres them for a few minutes and connects us."
– Claire
"A flexible programme with so many offerings to give you inspiration and ideas for bringing yoga practice to your little ones."
– Alyx
You don’t have to have it all figured out.
You don’t need to be the perfect parent (because that doesn’t exist). You don’t need to have the perfect space, the perfect mindset, or kids who always listen.
All you need is the willingness to show up—to create space for connection, to explore these tools in a way that feels fun, and to know that every little moment adds up.
This is possible for you. A family practice that feels playful, meaningful, and supportive—where emotional regulation isn’t just something you talk about but something you experience together.
And the best part? You don’t have to do it alone. Family Yoga Game Night is here to guide you every step of the way. 💛

Meet the teacher
Hey, I’m Natasha, and I’ve been teaching children’s yoga since 2017. As a mum of 2 sensory sensitive, deep feeling kids, I know first hand how tough emotional regulation can be—for both parents and children. But here’s the thing: when we make emotional skills playful and fun, it changes everything.
Through my own journey as a parent, I’ve discovered how to bring calm and joy to my home using playful yoga and mindfulness practices. Now, I’m sharing everything I’ve learned with you!
Is Family Yoga Game Night Right for You?

- You’re looking for a fun and meaningful activity to practice with your child.

This is not for you if...
You're not a parent, caregiver, or teacher of children aged 4 to 12, or if you're looking for live classes or a more personalized approach.
If holistic well-being and mindful, connected practices aren’t your priority right now , this membership might not suit your needs. Also if you're looking for videos your child can simply follow along with, this won't be for you. Our focus is on shared, interactive practices, not solo activities for your kids.
During your time in this membership, you will:
- Have a family routine that supports emotional regulation.
- Know exactly how to bring more moments of calm into your week together.
- Feel more connected with your kids through playful, meaningful activities.
- Gain a deeper understanding of yoga practices for children.
- Be part of a community that prioritize children's wellness.
The Truth Is...
If you want to help your children build emotional resilience, you need to make time for it. But it doesn’t have to be hard or time-consuming, and you don't have to do it alone. You get to be part of the FYGN crew now 😍

What are teachers saying?
While this membership has been created with parents practicing with their kids at home in mind, teachers are also loving this membership to support their students!!
"Family yoga with Natasha “ has been such a help and guidance through my time as a yoga teacher. I’m so benefiting from the different yoga games, breathing exercises and the workshops. Communication with Natasha is always so clear and also her response to any questions are answered extremely quickly.
I feel mindfulness is extremely important and since the pandemic has become far more in need.
If your thinking of joining I would highly recommend the membership 🙏 - Rebecca
