Our Mission

We are a community of heart-centered people, committed to educate and guide through spirit, mind and body. As the central resource for yoga within Atlantic Canada, we foster a high standard of professional development, through a supportive network of yoga teachers and students.

All of our members have a minimum equivalent standard of training at the 200 hour level. We continue to provide and promote ongoing accreditation, learning and peer review for members’ growth and development.

Our Objectives

Through its members, the association educates the public about yoga as it is represented in authentic traditions and lineages, and guides students to qualified teachers.

The association promotes the belief of study, practice and evolution of yoga and actively fosters bridges between disciplines of yoga to preserve its traditions and foundations.

Ethics in Yoga

All of our yoga teachers are accountable and responsible for creating a safe environment in which to teach, allowing for self-exploration and mutual development on the yoga path.
