  • FEEL CONFIDENT and happy in their own skin

  • Understand POSITIVE BODY IMAGE and self esteem

  • Ensure a positive FIRST IMPRESSION

  • COMMUNICATE EFFECTIVELY - online and offline

  • Become aware of the importance of TAKING CARE of themselves and build HEALTHY HABITS

Tween girls, typically between the ages of 9 to 12, are going through a significant phase of development that bridges the gap between childhood and adolescence. This period, often referred to as preadolescence or "tweenhood," is marked by various physical, emotional, social, and cognitive changes.

Physical changes during these years can sometimes be accompanied by self-consciousness or confusion, as they adjust to their evolving bodies.

Tweens are developing critical thinking skills and expanding their ability to reason and understand complex concepts. They start questioning authority, seeking independence, and developing their own values and beliefs.

Socially, tweens navigate the challenges of forming and maintaining friendships. They seek peer acceptance and are influenced by social norms. Friendships become more important, and cliques or groups may form.

Emotionally, tweens may exhibit increased sensitivity and experience mood swings. They are exploring their identities and may grapple with self-esteem, body image, and social acceptance.

*The Tweens Workshop is designed for young people aged 10-12 who identify as girls or non-binary. All students are welcome though and encouraged to join us if they feel excited about it! Please reach out to us if you’d like to chat further and see if it’s the right fit for your child.

FAQs

  • The suitable ages are a guide only. If you feel that your daughter would benefit from this course then by all means, book her in. Please note that we highly discourage girls any younger than 9 1/2 enrolling because we’ve really noticed the difference in behaviour between a 9 year old and a 12 year old. While we love having all girls in the class, we’ve found that 9 year olds and younger really need a lot of play-based activities. The Tweens Workshop is very hands-on but there is also a lot of discussion-based activities that the 10-12 year old girls absolutely love. If your daughter is younger than 10 and you really want her to do this course, please consider this before booking her in. It might be more beneficial for your daughter to wait until she does turn 10.
