This in-depth, body-based workshop is designed for adults who care for or work with children aged 5–11 — parents, yoga/pilates instructors, educators, and pediatric therapists.
Our focus: understanding and addressing the early signs of dysfunction in children’s feet — before they lead to long-term postural, neurological, or emotional issues.
This isn’t pediatric podiatry — it’s a somatic, therapeutic approach to foundational development.
Led by a certified yoga specialist and psychosomatic specialist, the workshop blends movement science, developmental anatomy, and body-based therapy to decode what kids’ feet are telling us — and how to support them naturally.
We’ll explore:
Flat feet: functional vs. structural
Toe gripping, collapsed arches & over-pronation
W-sitting, in-toeing, and gait imbalances
Weak foot musculature & instability
Hypermobile joints & poor proprioception
Early bunions, hammertoes, and toe deviation
Emotional grounding & the psychosomatic map of the feet
Barefoot training: when it helps, when it doesn’t
Simple daily exercises and at-home techniques to support change
Ideal for:
Parents noticing fatigue, clumsiness, or poor posture in their kids
Yoga and movement teachers working with children
Pediatric health practitioners interested in a somatic lens
Bodyworkers looking to expand their skillset into developmental support
Adults only. This is a theory + practice workshop (no children present).
Part 1 of the workshop will be held strictly without children present. During this session, we will cover the essential theory and teach you how to safely perform the exercises yourself.
Later, we will offer Part 2, focused entirely on hands-on practice. You’ll be welcome to bring your child to this session. Only those who have completed Part 1 will be eligible to participate in Part 2.
