SOAS Centre of Yoga Studies
Description
SOAS Centre of Yoga Studies is globally recognised as the most important institutional hub for the fast-growing field of Yoga Studies.
The Centre offers a busy programme of activities including a very popular online lecture series, in-person seminars, book launches, and summer schools. Our main aim is to be the catalyst for learning, cutting-edge research, and global outreach on Yoga Studies by hosting conversations between distinguished scholars, practitioners and life-long learners, who are fascinated by its history, practice and philosophy.
SOAS is home to the international admired MA in Traditions of Yoga and Meditation. This postgraduate degree explores the origins and historical development of yoga and meditation in India and Tibet from ancient times to the modern world. Graduates of this programme have made significant contributions to the field and taken up roles of public influence.
Through our online learning platform, SOAS YogaStudies Online, we offer a wide range of topic-based courses, flexible study programmes, and professional development opportunities that allow students to experience the wealth of knowledge on offer at SOAS in new and accessible ways. Carefully curated by the School’s team of world-renowned researchers, our short courses provide a distinct learning experience at the forefront of Yoga Studies, which cannot be found elsewhere.
