The Foundation Course focuses on basic practical techniques and personal development taught in the context of the philosophy that underpins yoga. This 60 hour course is for yoga students who have a minimum of two years experience with a suitably qualified yoga teacher. Although the course is a recommended precursor to the BWY Teacher Training course, the Foundation Course is also for students who simply desire to study yoga more deeply and establish a personal practice. There will be an Introductory Session on May 11th 2008 followed by one Sunday per month for 10 months. Times: 9.3Oam - 400pm [1st Sunday in each month where possible, but dates can be negotiated at the Introductory session] For further details and an application form, please contact Ann :- Tel: 01656 864998, or email: annlewis12@hotmail.com
