Yoga Alliance Professionals

Yoga Alliance Professionals has grown to become an internationally recognised yoga organisation, with members and training courses all around the world!

Established in 2006, Yoga Alliance UK brings a fresh, fairer approach to Accrediting Yoga Teachers and ensuring high standards. We re-launched as Yoga Alliance Professionals in 2016. Our aim remains to promote high teaching standards by encouraging our members to participate in continuous training. We are a ‘grassroots’ organisation bringing together Yoga Teachers, Trainees, Trainers, and Studios. We offer support, training and development to all members of the yoga community. We ensure that both individuals and organisations who join us are legitimate and have trained to the highest of standards. This ensures peace of mind to the general public and yoga students when they choose a YAP registered Teacher. We do not want to ‘control’ Yoga as we believe that this will cause it to lose its identity and creative flair. All training courses are encouraged to be original and individual. We want to avoid producing cookie-cutter training programmes. We are an inclusive organisation. We both respect and value experience and accept ‘veteran’ teachers with vast teaching experience, who otherwise are excluded simply because they have not completed a foundation teacher training. For yoga teachers we offer a structured Career Path from Trainee through to Senior Yoga Teacher. This includes CPD, Vocational Workshops and Further Trainings. Our qualifications and marks are recognised worldwide and we have members in every continent. We would love to have you join our family. The Yoga Alliance Professionals Team

About Us

Independent: We are not affiliated or connected to any other body, and have consistently resisted attempts by the sports industry to take over yoga.

Not for profit: Membership fees are used to provide our members with increasingly sophisticated web presence and support.

We pay our staff a decent wage: We do not believe in using volunteers for what is a specialised and skillful job. Our staff are our strength and take part in all decision making. We offer apprenticeships to encourage young people to learn the business inside out.

We know what makes the yoga scene tick: Our Directors have vast experience of teaching and running yoga centres.
