Yoga Foundations Course

Where curiosity becomes understanding, and practice becomes presence.
The Yoga Foundations Course by The Shared Mat is a three-month immersive programme designed for anyone who wants to explore yoga beyond the physical practice.
Whether you're looking to deepen your own practice, gain a richer understanding of yoga, or you're considering a 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training but aren't quite ready to commit, this course offers the perfect place to begin.
Hosted at The Holistic Haven in Hellingly, East Sussex, this in-person programme blends yoga philosophy, anatomy, breathwork, meditation and mindful movement, giving you the confidence, knowledge and experience to take your practice to the next level.
Many of our students join this course because they're curious about becoming a yoga teacher. By the end of the programme, you'll have a solid understanding of what a Yoga Teacher Training involves, making it the ideal stepping stone before progressing onto our 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training.
