Become a Member School

Thank you for your interest in becoming an IAYT Member School. At least one applicant from each school must first hold an individual IAYT membership. Please log in under your individual profile to complete this application. If you are not already an individual member of IAYT, click here to join

The following form will provide us with more information about your school and yoga therapy training program(s). A Membership Team member will contact you once your application is received to schedule a meeting to learn more about your school or organization.

If you have questions or need assistance, please contact us.

Upon approval of your application, we encourage you to describe your program/organization as an IAYT Member School.

Schools may not use IAYT’s logo on their websites or on any promotional material. The IAYT logo is not a service mark that recognizes any standard of training quality; that is the purpose of service marks. IAYT-accredited programs, Approved Professional Development courses, and IAYT-certified yoga therapists are provided service marks.

 



The following information helps IAYT to better understand and serve its Member Schools. Please answer the items that apply to your organization. IAYT Member Schools typically offer one or more of the following:

  • specialty programs that focus on a limited number of health conditions (e.g., cancer), or yogic practices (e.g., yoga nidra)            
  • foundational or introductory generalist programs that cover a wide range of health conditions and yogic practices (commonly around 300 hours)
  • comprehensive generalist programs that might quality for IAYT accreditation (cover the competencies in the IAYT Educational Standards for the Training of Yoga Therapists, are at least 800 hours after a minimum 200-hour training or equivalent, and last at least 2 years).


















I understand that this is a membership, not a registry or program accreditation. I understand that I may not use the IAYT logo to promote this program/organization. It is permissable - and encouraged - to say that this is an IAYT Member School.
