From your first conversation to a full diary of classes.
Most of the work happens while the children are already at school or nursery, which, for a lot of our franchisees, is exactly why it works.
Sessions in nurseries and schools during the day, plus small SEN groups in special schools and SEN units. Add after school clubs, holiday clubs and parent and pre school classes if you want more. Every session follows our curriculum, so you are never planning from scratch.
Visiting local settings, following up enquiries and keeping your schools happy. We give you the call lists, the emails and the materials.
Bookings, invoices and messages to parents, all through the booking system we provide.
Some franchisees keep it to term time mornings. Others fill the week and take on a second teacher. The model stretches to fit.
Before you commit, you will see exactly where your boundaries are, how many schools and nurseries sit inside them, and the call lists we have already prepared for you. We would rather you knew all that up front than found out afterwards.
We agree the boundaries with you, built around where you live and the settings within reach.
And the territory is yours. You are the only Happy Kids Yoga provider in your area, and we will tell you where the nearest franchisee is before you sign anything.
Almost everyone who talks to us says some version of the same thing: I can teach, but I don’t know how to market myself. Social media especially.
It’s the part we’re best at. Both of us have marketing degrees, and Simon works as a marketing consultant, so marketing isn’t a folder we hand you on day one and wish you luck with.
You get your social content ready to post, flyers and materials you can use straight away, and your own page on our website. Nursery campaigns run nationally, so that isn’t left to you. And you get the school and nursery lists for your territory, built from official registers, so you are never starting at a blank page.
We would also rather you could make your own, so you get one to one Canva training, and newer franchisees have a weekly social media drop in with us while they are finding their feet.
Then there’s the bit you can’t put in a list. If something isn’t working, we look at it with you.
The settings you will work with already know and trust Happy Kids Yoga.
Your children’s yoga qualification, included in the fee, plus our own training in the curriculum, the business and marketing.
Reviewed by a SENCO, a speech and language therapist and an occupational therapist.
Lesson plans by age group, mindfulness and relaxation activities, and seasonal themes.
A full set of yoga equipment, props and resources, plus your branded uniform.
Flyers, social content, a page on this website and national campaigns that send enquiries your way.
Contact lists for your territory, built by head office from the official registers.
The booking system, and the tools for messages to parents.
Regular check ins, ongoing training and refresher sessions as the curriculum grows.
A family of franchisees who share ideas, meet up and celebrate each other’s wins.
You do not need a yoga qualification or business experience. We cover the rest. Our franchisees have come from classrooms, swimming pools, outdoor activity centres and childminding. None of them were children’s yoga teachers when they started. What matters is:
You do not need to be a yoga expert, but a love of wellness, mindfulness and working with children is essential.
You will build relationships with nurseries, schools and families, so you enjoy connecting with people.
Experience is not needed, but the drive to learn and grow is what makes a franchise thrive.
Working with children takes patience, energy and fun, and you bring that to every class.
It sets out the franchise fee, what it includes, the ongoing fees and an honest illustration of what franchisees earn. We would rather you read it properly than see a headline number here.
