ABOUT

Over the years, Yogamoo™ has grown from a local Yoga company to a successful Training company and Wellbeing club provider in schools who is passionate about helping school staff and support children in the areas of mental and physical wellbeing.

Yogamoo™ is owned and run by Laurence Turner.  Until July 2020, and for well over 13 years prior to this, Laurence was the proud business Owner, Manager and Lead instructor of Reigate Yoga Studio Yogamoo™ based on Bell St with a team of 10 well-respected Yoga Teachers and friends.

Yogamoo™ is now a specialist children’s yoga and wellbeing provider, supporting schools and communities through movement, mindfulness and connection. For almost two decades, we have been working with children to help build confidence, emotional awareness and resilience — skills that support both learning and wellbeing.

We deliver structured, age-appropriate yoga and wellbeing programmes in primary schools, designed to support children’s physical, emotional and social development. Our sessions combine movement, breath awareness, storytelling and relaxation in a way that is inclusive, accessible and developmentally appropriate.

At the heart of Yogamoo™ is a belief that wellbeing grows through consistency, positive relationships and a sense of belonging. Our approach is not about performance, but about helping children feel safe, confident and capable — in their bodies, in their learning and in themselves.

What We Do

• Deliver curriculum-aligned yoga and wellbeing programmes in primary schools

• Support children’s emotional regulation, focus and self-confidence

• Work alongside schools as a trusted wellbeing partner

• Provide high-quality training and support for specialist children’s yoga teachers

• Promote positive mental health through movement, mindfulness and connection

Our Approach

We take a developmental and preventative approach, supporting children before difficulties arise. Our programmes are:

• Inclusive and trauma-informed

• Rooted in movement, play and exploration

• Adapted to the needs of each school community

• Delivered by trained, supported practitioners

We work collaboratively with schools to ensure our sessions complement existing wellbeing, PSHE and pastoral provision.

Our Vision

As we move into our 20th year, Yogamoo™ remains committed to nurturing confident, resilient children and supporting schools in creating environments where wellbeing can flourish.

Our aim is to be a trusted long-term partner for schools — offering thoughtful, high-quality wellbeing provision that grows with the needs of children, families and communities.
