The BWY Foundation course provides a basis for going deeper into Yoga practice without any pressure. I will be running the 60-hour course over 9 months on Thursday evenings ONLINE from 6.30-9.30pm and will covers a wide range of topics relating to Yoga Philosophy and practice. By choosing to work with me, you will be getting over 25 years of experience in teaching yoga as well as an Ayurvedic perspective on how to practice.

Who it is for:

The Foundation Course 1 is run nationally (in England, Scotland and Wales) and is suitable for anyone who wishes to develop their personal practice of yoga and widen their experience. It 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 equally suitable for yoga students who do not wish to teach.

Here is some feedback from past students:

“A wide range of information about many disciplines of Yoga. The openness of the teacher encouraged us as students to retain openness too. A great opportunity to explore new ideas and perspectives.” Kate 2015

“Great course management i.e. email communication and handouts. Also great to listen to Tarik’s brain!”  Kelly 2015

“It has been a really inspirational course. Tarik’s teaching has been clear and concise in both the asana work and theory. It has really helped me understand so much more than I could have got from the books alone. It has brought my Yoga practice to life!”  Steve 2015
