Yoga Teacher First Aid (blended)

This Yoga Teacher Emergency First Aid course includes the Emergency First Aid at Work (statutory) course, which complies with the current Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981. Successful students receive certificates to show that they are qualified to be First Aiders in the workplace for the next three years. The course complies with the British Wheel of Yoga (BWY), HotPod, Iyengar, Yoga Alliance and other accrediting body requirements for Yoga Teachers.

The Blended Yoga Teacher Emergency First Aid at Work course is split in to two parts; a two hour e-Learning component and then a four hour tutor-led classroom based component. The e-Learning component can be stopped and re-started, so does not have to be sat in one six hour session, but must be completed before the tutor-led classroom day!

Delegates will be sent details of the online part of the course approximately fourteen days before the tutor-led classroom based day. The online part must be successfully completed before the tutor-led classroom day (short assessment at the end of the e-Learning with a maximum of three attempts).
