IST DAY The Journey of a Yogi Through the Planning Jungle!

Saturday 18 October 10am - 4pm

This IST day comes highly recommended by Zoe Knott who ran a wonderful day
herself for us on strength in asana in October.

planning yoga classes. If you’ve been teaching a while and would like a fresh look
or if you are just starting out and could do with some fundamental ideas,
Bob is an inspiring and engaging teacher.

She will discuss preparing the body through developing core stability and using Bandha in simple Asanas, preparing for Kapalabhati, Agni Sar Dhauti, Nauli and Mula Bandha.

IST DAY - First Aid Appointed Persons Training

Saturday 15th November 2008 10am-4pm
at Burcot Village Hall with Nick Glasby. Nick is a popular teacher who presents the topic in an accessible and informative way.

IST DAY with PAUL FOX – ‘Adjusting

Sunday 22nd February 2009 10am-4pm
Students with Confidence’ – Part Two
Venue: Peopleton Village Hall, Worcestershire.
Paul Fox (BWY Dip) began studying yoga in 1995, and started teaching two years later. Paul has studied many styles of yoga including Ashtanga (Mysore tradition) and his particular focus in this workshop is Yoga and Anatomy. Paul’s previous workshop (Part One) in the Region was packed with enthusiastic students and many were amazed at what a little ‘tweak’ here and there could do. A must for all teachers and student teachers. Cost £28 BWY members and £32 nonmembers.

‘Grounding and Realignment in Asana’

Saturday 4th July 2009 10am-4pm BILL WOOD
Venue: Bromsberrow Village Hall, Herefordshire.
Bill Wood has been teaching yoga since 1994, and has been most inspired by Diane Long, who was a long-time student of the late, great, Vanda Scaravelli. Those who know this approach will appreciate the gentle, but profound way in which Bill works. He sees the inherent paradox in pushing less so that the body can work harder and deeper to release and realign. Students will hopefully gain a meditative awareness of the self. Open to all. Cost £28 BWY members and £32 non-members.

DAY with ZOE KNOTT – ‘Strength in Asana’

Saturday 21st November 2009 10am-4pm IST
Venue: King’s School Sports Hall, Worcester.
Zoe Knott (BWY Dip) is a teacher with over 30 years of experience and training in a wide range of yoga approaches. Zoe works to make asana safer for all through working towards developing muscle strength. Strength in asana is something many students want to gain, and this will be a useful day for all teachers and student teachers. Cost £30 BWY members and £34 non-members.
