Step 2

Applications are reviewed to confirm that training certificates or experience meet the requirements for the designation being requested.

Grandfathering Pathway

Recognition for Long-Time Teachers

Many yoga teachers began teaching before formal registry systems became common. Our grandfathering pathway allows experienced teachers to register based on years of teaching.

Experience-Based Eligibility

Teachers who meet the required number of years teaching may apply for registration without completing a new training program.

Maintaining Professional Recognition

Grandfathering allows experienced instructors to maintain credibility and recognition within the yoga community. Learn More
