Embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery and wellness with our "Journey Within" yoga and meditation workshop.
This comprehensive course is designed to introduce participants to the fundamentals of yoga and meditation, fostering physical health, mental clarity, and emotional balance. Whether you are a beginner or looking to deepen your practice, this workshop provides a supportive environment to explore the profound benefits of these ancient practices.

• Introduction to the fundamental principles of yoga and meditation. • Exploring the breath-body connection and practicing basic pranayama (breath control) techniques. • Learning and applying mindfulness meditation techniques for stress reduction and mental clarity. • Progressing to intermediate yoga postures with a focus on proper alignment and breath coordination. • Developing a personalized, sustainable yoga and meditation routine for long-term well-being

Abingdon and Witney College is subject to Ofsted regulation and is required to work with all its students to make sure they understand Government initiatives around Safeguarding, Prevent and Fundamental British Values. Information on these matters will be shared with you during your course.

Entry criteria
There are no formal entry requirements.

Courses can fill fast, so please enrol early to avoid disappointment. Decisions on whether a course is to run are made two weeks prior to the start date - an email will be sent to you should there be changes to your course or if it is cancelled. Please check your inbox leading up to your course, including the junk folders. For anyone without an email account, our Admissions team will phone you instead.

For the first week of the course you will need to bring a valid form of identification; this includes passport, driving licence, debit/credit card, Birth Certificate or National Insurance card.

Please note - you should be 19 years old or over at 31st August 2024 prior to starting the course.

Fee information
Courses offered by the college are fully or partly funded by the Government and the published fee takes account of this funding.

Before starting a course, the College is required to check you meet conditions relating to that funding, e.g. age, residency status within the UK/EEA, prior qualification level and employment status. In some circumstances (such as with online enrolments), these checks can only be completed after you have enrolled and paid.

If you are unable to pay in full for this course at the time of enrolment, and the course tuition fee is £300 or more, an instalment plan is available. If this is your preference, please do not enrol online but rather call the Admissions Team on 01235 216400 to enrol.

Once enrolled, Admissions will take the first instalment payment from you and pass on your details to the Finance team who will email you to set-up your payment plan. Please return a fully completed instalment plan to Finance as failure to do so could result in being withdrawn from your course.

The rules on fee reduction are complicated, we would encourage you to talk to our Admissions Team on 01235 216400 to discuss these options. You can find more information on our Fees and Bursaries page - search "Fees and Bursaries" at the top of the page.
