Kelly McCool
Kids Yoga Teacher
McCool Kids Yoga Founder
I have a love for people and working with children. As a K-5 educator, I was stressed out from the demands of the classroom. I began practicing yoga as a means to relax and relieve stress from the day. It worked wonders for my body and mind. I was immediately hooked! With more time on the mat, my love of yoga grew and I desired to be able to share this gift with others.
I completed my 200 hour yoga teacher training through Yogacara in Costa Rica. I am certified in Hatha and Vinyasa yoga. After certification, I extended the gift of yoga to the staff in my school and eventually the students.
I bring to the mat 16 years of experience in teaching children in Gwinnett County Public Schools and City of Decatur Schools. While working in the classroom, I sought ways to help children manage their stress, behaviors and emotions. I found, when given the proper tools, my students were able to be successful in the classroom. I completed the Children’s Yoga Teacher training with Kidding Around Yoga. Using my skills as a certified yoga instructor and classroom teacher, I bring a wealth of knowledge to my classes. I am super excited to share my love of yoga with you and your child!
