Foundation Course Training
The Yoga Scotland Foundation Course is a 60-hour course is
designed to explore yoga in more depth than in an average class and to
expand and consolidate personal practice. The course offers a chance to
experience many aspects of yoga including a wide range of asanas,
pranayama, concentration, and meditation as well as topics such as the
history of Yoga, and the different paths and schools of yoga.
It is offered for students who wish to develop their knowledge of yoga
further and it is also a prerequisite for those wanting to train as
teachers, prior to taking the teaching diploma course.
