My Mission, My Purpose
Welcome to Little Big Warrior Well-being.
“Elevate your child’s health Naturally “
My name is Shannon Summergreene, the owner of Little Big Warrior, the only Kids & Teens Yoga and Healing Centre on the Northern Beaches, Sydney.
I have lived on the Northern Beaches all my life, I have a loving husband, 2 beautiful souls and I am so grateful to be raising my family in this beautiful place. My kids are my motivation, inspiration, my passion as to why I am here today, they have given me this purpose, and that is to reach as many children and families as I can, to help them find inner peace, so they know how to calm their minds and emotions in times of need.
Motivated through the suffering of my teen anxiety and depression, I have a mission to reduce mental health within in Children and Teens.
As a empath, I understands sensitivities, emotions and what it is like to not feel like everyone else.
By empowering youth to have self-confidence, self-worth and self love, kids can BE THEMSELVES.
Making a life lasting impact by navigating the youth to manage and have a true understanding of their own wellbeing, mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually.
Little Big Warrior is a welcoming, supportive, fun and nurturing family community. Implementing a natural, effective, and straightforward approach, yoga works the entire body, soothing the mind, strengthening muscles, supporting your organs and making you feel good.
Using and incorporating various holistic modalities, I create yoga session where the kids feel good, they have fun and they feel safe and comfortable to open up, to just be themselves.

My mission is to reduce mental health conditions in Australia. 1 in 100 kids commit suicide everyday in Australia. Suicide is the leading cause of death in youths.
Yoga empowers our kids and teens to take charge of their own mental, physical and emotional health.
I want this for all the children to teach. I want them to walk away feeling great about themselves, I want them to have found a place of stillness, to know whatever challenge they come across in their life they have yoga, breathing exercises, know how to find peace within themselves.
I am dedicated to sharing my knowledge, information and skills that will help raise our little ones to live a life that is mindful, positive and happy.
To be mindful is to be present, to be aware, to not judge and to do things for a purpose.
Teaching kids to be more mindful is pretty simple, lead by example. By practicing a mindful life you show your little ones first hand. So be present, be calm, eat well, play, laugh and of course love and support one another.
You can also teach your children through books, games, activates, meditations, playing outside, being creative, drawing, using their imagination and to be environmentally and health aware.
And of course our Yoga Classes are an educational, fun, interactive way for our children to work together and learn to live a positive mindful life.
I am a big fan of creating positive mindsets and how the power of the mind can change each and everyone of us.
JUST ONE POSITIVE THOUGHT EACH MORNING, CAN CHANGE YOUR WHOLE DAY.
Try it when you wake up every day for the next week.
What a lot of people do not realise is how powerful the mind is, especially in children.
From an early age you can start setting a positive mindset for your children.
Children do not always know how to deal with unwanted emotions and because of this they may act out, throw a tantrum, have trouble sleeping, create an anxious reaction/trigger to something. To see this as parents, caregivers, and guardians it can really affect us too. It certainly hurts my soul to see my kids upset in anyway.
With Little Big Warrior I want to create a calm, fun and safe place, a place where I can use my knowledge of Mindfulness, Yoga, Yoga Therapy, Energy Medicine, Kinesiology, Hypnosis and NLP to help the next generation grow into Strong, Mindful, Kind Warriors.
And what I LOVE most about this approach is that it’s all NATURAL, it’s SIMPLE and it’s truly EFFECTIVE.
Lets work together and support each other to build a peaceful, mindful and forever living world.
