Tatty Bumpkin Teaching Programme
We have been running our award winning training programme for 3.5 years now, and have trained over 200 teachers. In 2007 the training became accredited with CACHE (Council for Awards in Childcare and Education). For 2008 we are concentrating our focus onto launching a Franchise programme which will compliment our teaching programme. Whilst we focus on the launch we are operating a reduced training schedule with courses running in Feb and May.
We feel this is a real step forward as it will enable us to offer local level support to the teachers and provide a better service to everyone.
What it means if you are considering attending a Tatty Bumpkin training, is that you may in the future answer to your area representative (Franchisee) rather than to us at head office.
Please get in touch with us and we will keep your details on file until a franchise comes into your area and needs to take on teachers.

"A huge thank you for a wonderful course - the Tatty concept is true inspiration! James, my eldest is so in to it - after just one class. He has claimed a mat as his, has Tatty asleep with him and has been through 'Bendy, Giggly, Clever and Strong' loads of times complete with jigging. Loads of positive affirmations going on. We had a great time, it really is special - thank you again for the inspiration."
"Thanks for the brilliant training. I was nervous about booking the taster sessions for the week after the training but feel so well prepared! My classes are both full and I have already had a request for a birthday party and can't wait to get stuck in!"
"Thankyou Sam, Sue, and Tatty Bumpkim. Brilliant weekend & experience, great location.
I can't wait to start the world of Tatty Bumpkin Thankyou for opening the doors to such a magical world!"
We have structured the programme specifically to be inspired by yoga, but you do not have to have yoga experience or be a yoga teacher yourself. The most important thing is that you have a sense of fun, imagination, an understanding of children and the ability to laugh at yourself.
We always have a yoga teacher and a physiotherapist (or equivalent) teacher on our courses - we think it is important that you get taught by experts in their field. Where possible we have visiting teachers eg. educationalists, special needs teachers, occupational therapists, who add another dimension again.
We have deliberately made the course affordable to help mums back to work, and have won a social enterprise award for this model. There are also a limited number of free bursary places available (please contact us if you have relevant skills but are unable to pay the full fee)
