The BWY Foundation Course 1 is a 60-hour personal development course for anyone who has been attending yoga classes for 2 years or more with a recognised yoga teacher. The course will further your understanding of yoga, develop your personal practice and widen your experience. The course provides a comprehensive grounding in basic practical techniques taught in the context of the philosophy that underpins Yoga. It is an ideal preparation for those who may wish to train as yoga teachers in the future but is great for yoga students who do not wish to teach, but would like to know a bit more.

The aim of the course is to go deeper into the teachings of yoga than a typical yoga class allows, providing students with the knowledge, the tools and the space to deepen their relationship with yoga. The course will cover a comprehensive range of asana, pranayama, meditation, mudra, mantra, kriya, yogic anatomy (chakras, nadis), relaxation, as well as covering the history of yoga, yoga philosophy (including the Yoga Sutras attributed to Patanjali)and the different schools and paths of yoga.

The BWY Foundation course is for:
* students who wish to deepen their personal yoga practice, increase their knowledge of yoga and meet like minded yogis.

* those considering yoga teacher training as a future option – the course provides a good introduction to and preparation for Certificate and Diploma teaching courses.
