Further Studies Courses

Enhance your personal development, extend your practice and deepen your understanding of the philosophy of Yoga

Are you a Yoga Teacher looking for Further Studies Programme?

 

FOUNDATION COURSE LEVEL 1

UPDATE

July 2010 saw the end of another successful BWY Foundation Level 1 course.  All the students did extremely well and thoroughly enjoyed the intensive retreat in UK.  

PLEASE NOTE: Because of my forthcoming trip to New Zealand I will not be commencing a Level 1 course during 2011. 

 
 
FURTHER STUDIES COURSE LEVEL 2
Feb 2011 – July 2011
Introductory Day 30th October 2010

 

Have you finished Level 1 and feel at a bit of a loss?

Do you miss being with a like-minded group?

Would you like to go on and further your study of Yoga?

 
Aims:
The course aims to provide an environment in which you can continue to further your personal development and encourage a deeper level of concentration, meditation and inner stillness through all aspects of safe Yoga practices and the study of philosophical texts. 
 
This is a course I’ve developed as a result of my several years experience of running successful BWY Foundation courses at levels 1 & 2.   I’ve modified this course to include more personal in-depth study and flexibility than in level 1.   Andrew who is an NLP practitioner, trainer, business coach and musician will be assisting me with the course.
 
Who is the course for?
The course is suitable for serious students who have a basic foundation in yoga, or may be student teachers, or anyone who wishes to join a like-minded group over half a year, in order to continue or renew their personal study of this wonderful subject. 
 
Dates, Times & Venue: 
The course will take place one Saturday a month 10am-5pm, at my home in the lovely Roman market town of Cirencester, Gloucestershire.  Easily accessible from M4, M5 & Oxford.

Please note - If there is sufficient demand from the group it may be possible to add a retreat in France on to the end of the course, but this is not at present included into the course.  
Cost:
In view of the current economic climate that we are faced with today I have structured this course in a way to help reduce the costs (eg.  hall and retreat hire etc).    As a result I am delighted to offer a high quality 7 day course at the incredible price of only £285.    Full payment is required or a deposit of £50 to secure your place.
Please note - There are now only 2 spaces available so don’t delay, get in touch right away if you think you might be interested.

What Students Have Said:

“I went to my first diploma introduction day yesterday . . . I am so pleased to have taken the foundation course first.  Apart from being a really interesting and enjoyable course, it has already proved invaluable for my diploma study - so I just wanted to say a big thank you for that!  . . .I think I have come a long way on my yoga journey from when I first sat with you for my foundation course interview - much of that is down to you and your teaching and I appreciate the chance you gave me to attend the course.”    Emma FC1 student 2006

 

'The Journey'

by Julie Armstrong (FC1 student)

 

She drifts,

feels shifts

both inside and outside

her.

She is there, and is not, gone inwards,

beyond thought

through skies of her

mind, to find,

the path, the way,

the ‘still point of the turning world,’

to balance, mind,

 body, spirit,

to be

a  pin prick,

burning

globe of

 hot gas,

gazing

forwards yet backwards

in time,

listening

 to earth pulse,

being

cocooned

into herself,

she journeys

to this place,

returns

anew.

July 2006, Normandy

“The retreat was a wonderful immersion into all aspects of yoga and has had a profound effect on my understanding, integration of my learning and establishing my regular yoga practice in every way.  Without the retreat I don’t think I would have got nearly so much from the course!

“I have enjoyed the style in which Jan has taught the syllabus and her encouragement of our participation in every aspect of our learning process.”
