The Organisation
As a Registered Charity, The British Wheel of Yoga has a National Executive Committee (NEC) that makes strategic decisions on behalf of its members.
The NEC comprises the BWY Chair, Vice Chair, Treasurer, Education Committee Chair, and three Regional Officer Representatives.
The Regional Officer Committee, which comprises the Regional Officer of each of the BWY twelve regions considers the day to day operational management of the organisation.
The Education Committee develops training courses and reviews and monitors the BWY's training portfolio to ensure it reflects current best practice.
Within each region there are County Representatives (around 60 in total), with other volunteers taking up posts of Regional Magazine Editor, Regional Training Officers etc.
National Governing Body For Yoga
The BWY is recognised by Sport England and The Sport and Recreation Alliance (formally the CCPR) as the National Governing Body for Yoga in England. As the NGB for Yoga we also accredit other organisation's teacher training programmes.
