The delivery of the community 6 week ‘Yoga in Action’ programme must be between 4th November - 13th December. It must be called ‘Yoga in Action - Baby Yoga’, or ‘Yoga in Action - Pregnancy Yoga’ etc.

This delivery of the 6 week programme must be to your local community hub and must be to a local vulnerable group. You are responsible for setting up an appropriate community hub group to deliver to.

This group must consist of a vulnerable community that wouldn’t normally be able to access yoga and wellbeing due to lack of personal funds. We hope there will be 10 - 20 attendees in each 6 week group. We recommend you ‘over-book’ as often participants drop out at the last minute and we really want the funding to reach the community it aims to help support.

We are expecting that you either provide this 6 week delivery as a volunteer as a 'fair exchange’ (an act of what in yoga we call ‘Asteya’) in return for the free training and certification, or perhaps you will be funded by a local community hub, school, charity or CIC you are in partnership with.

It is up to you whether you charge participants to attend your 6 week programme, or, of course, you can offer these ‘Yoga in Action’ programmes for free to your community.

The cost you might normally charge for classes is £45 per 6 week mum/baby yoga class, £30 per 6 week kids yoga class & £60 per 6 week pregnancy yoga class. We understand that sometimes charging a nominal amount encourages people to attend these programmes, so this is up to you, but we expect there to be an appropriate discount to the community group.

If you do charge a nominal amount we expect the fee to go towards the next round of practitioner funding from ‘Yoga in Action’, so we will invoice you for the fee. This is what we call Karma yoga, which means ‘Yoga in Action’.

The 'Yoga in Action' Training takes place at the Norwich Wellbeing Centre.

The 6 week delivery programme is as follows:

Mum/ baby yoga is a 60 min class x one a week for 6 weeks.

Pregnancy yoga is a 75 min class x one a week for 6 weeks.

Kids yoga is a 60 min class x one a week for 6 weeks.

We have found that offering a free biscuit and a cup of tea or squash after the class is great for community bonding so we recommend that you perhaps add some time to the above classes for that kind of community sharing. Community is at the essence of everything we do.

You will be mentored weekly through this process and all programme content will be learnt on the training. Throughout the process you must encourage weekly monitoring and evaluation from the participants, this will be in the form of simple tick box evaluations at the end of this class. You must send this data back to us. We will discuss the handling of this nearer the time in accordance with data rules etc. This data goes to the National Lottery so we can hopefully get more funding to do more good. It will also be used in the public domain. Again, we will assist with this.
