Healing Space - Yoga for Cancer - The original online course
No Longer taking enrollments - we have switched to the NEW modular course format. Check out the first module - Creating A Healing Space!
SPECIAL NOTE - From the end June 2018 The Healing Space online course will be under improvement and redevelopment to further meet the changing needs of yoga teachers. This means that we will suspend current sales of the online course until August 2018 when the course will launch again in modular format.
From August you will be able to purchase individual learning modules, rather than having to pay for the whole course at once. You will be able to build up towards the full Healing Space certification - earning points by studying core modules and electives and participating in live webinars.
You will also be able to study the individual modules as stand alone learning and CPD. Each module will be priced from a very affordable £95!
Students studying on the current Healing Space online course are not affected by these changes.

This course is offered as an alternative to the intensive face to face training which I offer in the UK. The Healing Space online learning course comprises all of the elements of the face-to-face training, in a modular format, for those who maybe require a little more flexibility in their studies, but with no compromise on the content and quality of the course.
As with all of the Healing Space courses, there is a minimum six-month self-internship requirement for certification. This can be done as you study. The minimum amount of time required to complete the course content online is three months, but it is recommended that you use the full six months to fully absorb and process the course materials. You have a maximum of 12 months to finish.
There will also be a requirement for one included Skype (or other appropriate medium) meeting with the course director or a senior tutor, during your studies, plus a face-to-face assessment or video assessment also an option. Additional Skype tutorials can be arranged as required and cost £40
The course is accredited by the Complementary Medical Association and Recognised by the Independent Yoga Network as a post graduate qualification for yoga teachers.
