Demystifying Yoga Alliance Episode 102
Wondering what Yoga Alliance really does for yoga teachers? In this episode of Yogalebrity, hosts Angelica Govaert and Justine Kennedy pull back the curtain on the often misunderstood role of Yoga Alliance. They discuss why certification through Yoga Alliance is not a requirement to teach yoga and clarify that Yoga Alliance doesn’t certify teachers—it simply approves training programs that meet certain, non-government-mandated standards.
💡 Key Takeaways:
Yoga Alliance is not a regulatory body, and many high-quality training options exist outside of its approval.
The perception of Yoga Alliance’s authority is largely shaped by marketing.
Politics, diversity, and personal experience all shape the yoga community, yet it’s crucial to keep yoga’s essence at the heart of teaching.
Empowerment, authenticity, and building supportive community networks are essential for lasting growth in the yoga industry.
Join Angelica and Justine as they explore the complexity of yoga certification, the value of staying true to yoga’s roots, and why the evolution of the yoga community can lead to more inclusive and empowered teaching.
