At the heart of yoga overseas
Welcome to our community. We have a small number of overseas members across Europe and Canada. Many have been UK-based members and BWY teachers who have moved abroad, but everyone is welcome to join us.
Our overseas members enjoy access all our online courses, modules, CPD workshops and events and resources, where applicable. Where membership benefit suppliers offer a service beyond the UK, overseas members enjoy discounts on a wide range of yoga and wellness-related products too.

FAQs
We love inspiring ideas for events – the best way to get your ideas on our calendar is to contact your Regional or National Officer with your suggestions of tutors, subjects or venues that you would like to see on offer. Even better still, if you can arrange an event with the support of your local committee or join them as an area representative, that will help ensure quality events in the future.
BWY committees run by volunteers in posts which need different time commitments. A good entry level role is secretary or deputy area representative. This gives you the opportunity to learn the ropes without too much pressure. Alternatively, you could offer to help occasionally at larger events. All help is welcome!
Joining your local committee is a great way to meet fellow yoga lovers in your area and feel part of a team. You can help ensure there are great events happening regularly near you and help spread the word throughout your community, especially encouraging people who may not know about BWY or even yoga to take part.
