BWY Teaching Diploma Course

All Teaching Diploma Courses follow a national syllabus but may differ slightly in the way they are managed. Generally, most courses are timetabled once a month and some courses include residential study weekends. The timescale of the course is somewhere between 2½ and 3 years. There will be written assignments for completion at home as well as presentations within the peer group to aid development of teaching skills.

Applicants need to have maintained class practice with a recognized teacher for two years prior to contacting a Diploma Course Tutor.

The application process includes attendance at an Introductory Day plus an interview with the Diploma Course Tutor. This usually happens at least three months prior to the commence­ment date of the course. Some tutors will only accept applic­ations from people who have taken part in a Foundation Course prior to applying to attend an Introductory Day, so it is wise to contact the tutor and enquire. Places are limited and highly sought-after so it is important to contact tutors early to express your interest.

Current/planned Teaching Diploma Courses

Terri Hilder will be running a Yoga teacher training intensive in Durham starting in September 2012 with Induction Days in June/July 2012.
This course will be demanding, challenging and fun. The course will run over two years, meeting approximately once a month on both Saturday and Sundays, with some just Saturday meetings. It will have the same content and number of hours study as the less intense 3-year course. The course will lead to the gold standard of yoga teaching qualifications - the new level 4 BWYQ Diploma in Teaching Yoga.
