BWY training modules
There is a wide range of BWY modular courses available drawing upon the expertise and skills of our teaching members and reaching out to all practitioners nationwide. They represent the very highest standard of teaching and are regulated by BWY. These courses represent a substantial undertaking in terms of study and a higher level of training in yoga. Each one contains a minimum of 40 tutor contact hours, and requires 20 hours of personal study by the student. Modules are a superb way to develop and sustain your practice, offering a range of new experiences and in-depth study with like-minded people.
Modular courses are split into two categories to allow greater access to all BWY members. If you need specialist information about modules, contact Wendy Teasdill, BWY Modules Officer modules(at)bwy.org.uk.
If you would like a particular module to run in East Midlands, please contact the Regional Officer, Sandra Kirkham.
