Welcome to our community which covers the counties of Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.
Whether you want to deepen your yoga practice or progress your teaching career, we offer workshops, training days and an annual yoga festival to help you on your yoga journey.
Details of our latest news and upcoming events are in our newsletter which is published three times a year. You can also opt to receive regular emails about our events by choosing South as your primary or secondary region.
As a committee made up of volunteers, we would welcome your support to help our community grow. If you have a few hours to spare, please get in touch with us via the main BWY office. [include link to [email protected]]

Follow us for local events, news and yoga inspiration
Three times a year the latest news from your local yoga community lands on your doorstep. It is a great way to find out what events are coming up, read articles and features and stay connected.
Each region of the BWY has up to 1000 yoga enthusiasts and teachers, so if you have a retreat, book, training or product that would appeal to our communities, you can advertise in one or more of our newsletters.
To place an advert in any of the community newsletters, contact the editor (see Meet the team on any of the regional pages under the ‘Community’ menu) and they will invoice you for the advert.
Adverts and listings for BWY foundation courses, modules and teaching diploma courses are charged as listed below. Please note, non-BWY approved teacher trainings or courses that compete directly with BWY modules cannot be advertised within our publications.
All our advertising rates are subject to VAT and are per region.
We love inspiring ideas for events – the best way to get your ideas on our calendar is to contact your Regional Officer with your suggestions of tutors, subjects or venues that you would like to see on offer. Even better still, if you can arrange a local 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.
