Discover the Yoga Sutras:
The British Wheel of Yoga Foundation course is an accredited course suitable for students wanting to deepen their knowledge of Yoga. This 60 hour online course covers many aspects that would rarely be touched upon on a regular physical Yoga class and is a fantastic way to discover what Yoga, really is all about. The course can be an ideal first step for those wishing to continue to teacher training or for students who do not wish to be teachers but would like to develop their studies of Yoga further. On completion of the course students will receive a BWY Foundation Certificate.

"It gave me the confidence and the motivation to go back to University after over 25 years"
Lindsey Davidson
I wanted to say thank you so much for delivering the course. It really made me rethink my life goals and as a result I decided to do the MA. It gave me the confidence and the motivation to go back to University after over 25 years.
"It totally changed my mindset and inspired me to continue onto teacher training"
Brianna Oliver
Hana has been so incredibility wonderful and I have leant so much about pranayama, yogic philosophy, the different paths of yoga. I am now doing the BWY teacher training and it is all down to Hana’s incredibility awesome foundation course.
"It was an incredibly enlightening and positive experience"
Jade Tyso
It hugely helped me gain the confidence to put together my own sequences. The philosophy applied to real life off the mat. I think anyone who takes the course will find it so enriching and will continue their Yoga journey from there.

“The Foundation course gave me the inspiration and confidence to continue my path to teacher training”
Jenny Daly
The course works really well online and it meant that I got to meet people from all different parts of the country. The classes were really well structured, with a good balance of content, group discussions and practical work- I really looked forward to our classes every month! The pre-recorded materials were a great resource for us to work through in our own time- and refer back to at any point. The Foundation course gave me the inspiration and confidence to continue my path to teacher training- and I'm now a BWY Level 4 Diploma student with Hana!

"I have learnt so much about yoga, philosophy and anatomy which has enabled me to learn more about myself"
Amber white
'I would like to say a huge thank you for everything over the duration of the course! I have learnt so much about yoga, philosophy and anatomy which has enabled me to learn more about myself. At the start of the course I think I said I wanted to feel more embodied and I have achieved this goal and so much more. I have come to understand that yoga is a way of life that reaches far beyond what we do on the mat.'

“I have deepened my practice of Yoga beyond just the physical practice"
Susanne Rae
I have really enjoyed the foundation course with Hana. She has made everything really easy to understand and the sessions have been fun! Hana is a great teacher, she is patient and explain everything really well and she makes the lessons really interactive and interesting. The asana practices are well paced and she gives lots of guidance and encouragement. The recorded material is in bite sized pieces and really easy to use. My reason for joining the course was to deepen my practice of Yoga beyond just the physical practice and this course has been perfect for that.

Past Courses
"I now understand how breathing, preparation, mindset and perspective can deepen my practice"
I have been around a lot of Yoga teachers and been doing it for a really long time but I had not really reflected. So I am surprised that by investing in this and being around others who are interested in yoga has helped me be more authentic.
“It was exactly what I wanted and actually I got loads more out of it than I anticipated”
The biggest thing was developing my own home practice and having that to build on. I feel that is something that something that now is really established.
“It’s not just impacted my physical Yoga practice but also really given me a better sense of what I need and my values.”
Hana has exposed us to so much in terms of Yoga philosophy and theory and all the nuances behind things. It’s been such a positive experience and I feel really empowered to move forwards on this journey.

“I honestly don’t think you could find a better teacher to do the course with.”
Hana is so supportive and wise, but also lovely and fun. It’s just been a really lovely course. Since doing the course it’s amazing to know how much more there is to Yoga and how much more I now get out of classes.
I am so glad you have landed here!
I took the British Wheel of Yoga Foundation Course myself over 20 years ago! At the time I had just graduated from dance college and was having a tough time auditioning for jobs and teaching dance. Yoga had already been helping me ease the physical impact of dance but when I was introduced to the philosophy of yoga on the foundation course it was life changing! After studying and working with my body for many years, it was the first time I started to understand the body-mind connection that made everything make sense.
The foundation course changed my relationship with my body, my life style and my career. I have now been a full time yoga teacher for more than 17 years and it all started with taking this course. I am so excited to have the honour of sharing this course with you!
Hi, I'm Hana, Mum, Yoga teacher, lover of floaty dresses, cosy jumpers and tea!
There is absolutely no focus on the teaching of Yoga to others on this course. It is a personal development course that will introduce you to all the different aspects of Yoga stated in the syllabus.
Frequently Asked Questions
It is ideal if you are considering teacher training and an invaluable preparation for what lies ahead. You would develop your personal practice and all round knowledge of Yoga, so you will be sure of what your stepping into when it comes to teacher training. The course includes guidance and support for choosing and moving onto teacher training too.
We ask for people to have around 2 years or more experience of attending Yoga. This is not because the physical postures on the course are difficult, it is because we need to be sure you have a genuine interest and commitment to Yoga, for you to get the most from the course. The postures covered are basic ones such as downdog, triangle pose and so on, but we look at the fine details in each of them in a workshop style. In a regular 6 hour day, there is will be approx 90 minutes physical practice, the remainder will be the other subjects covered.
This is not a teacher training training certificate. It is a 60 hour personal development course which will prepare you for teacher training should you wish.
If you were unable to do the physical practice on any given day you would still benefit a huge amount from the rest of the course. Plus the physical class is always as a workshop would be, so there are plenty of notes and observations you could take down for your personal use later. .
As long as you can attend 80% of the course there is no problem at all. Live online sessions will be recorded so catching up is possible in your own time.
There is just small amount of reading homework and a home practice diary, which could take 10-15 minutes each week. You would need around 1 hour a week to watch pre-recorded material. There is no formal assessment.
All fees are non refundable and non transferable. Should you pay in instalments but leave before the end of the course, the remainder is still due.
You will have lifetime access to the pre recorded material. Lifetime access refers to the lifetime of the course. So as long as I am offering the Foundation Course, this material will be available.
