Setting Intentions for 2012
February 3, 2012

We hope the beginning of your 2012 has been invigorating and inspiring.  During this time of reflection and intention setting, we would like to restate our organization’s mission. Yoga Alliance is the national education and support organization for Yoga in the United States. We maintain a registry of teachers and schools whose training and experience meet our minimum standards. Registration is one of several types of credentialing that Yoga Alliance uses to list teachers and schools with specified education and experience requirements on a registry.  Registered Yoga Teachers (RYT®s) and Registered Yoga Schools (RYS®s) that meet our requirements are listed on our online directory for one year terms. Registration with Yoga Alliance is voluntary and is the premier form of recognition given to a Yoga teacher or school.

We feel very grateful for each member of our community and look forward to supporting your growth and learning as Yoga teachers in 2012.
