Why Are Standards So Important?

The popularity of yoga is snowballing. New courses are popping up left, right and centre claiming to give you all the knowledge and skills needed to become a teacher.

The History of Yoga Alliance Professionals

Yoga Alliance UK was officially established in 2006 by Brian Cooper and Bruce C. Mackay.

Together they opened Union Yoga Studio in 2004. Brian ran the Teacher Training program while Bruce managed the studio and workshop program. It involved inviting many top name teachers from around the globe to teach in Scotland and the UK.

By 2006 the overwhelming feedback from visiting senior teachers and Brian's teacher training courses was that the level of practice and teaching was dropping dramatically.
