Governance
Yoga Australia is a member-based organisation comprising qualified yoga professionals and those in training, yoga teacher trainers, retired yoga professionals and people invested in the yoga industry. Our mission is to develop and promote best practice, to support and represent yoga professionals in Australia from all traditions and styles, and to educate and inform the general community and professional groups about yoga.
Yoga Australia brings together professionals from all traditions, styles and backgrounds to provide mutual support and professional recognition of yoga in Australia. Yoga Australia proudly upholds high training and professional development standards, with international recognition of our registered members. Yoga students and the community are assured that a Yoga Australia registered professional meets recognised standards.
Our members have access to professional support networks; quality continuing professional development; professional publications and resources; registration for the purposes of health insurance rebates; a comprehensive website with individual profile pages for each registered member, search functionality and promotion of member’s services; and assistance with the promotion of yoga to the general public.
Our governance framework and processes are designed to ensure Yoga Australia achieves its stated mission effectively, ethically, in line with relevant regulations and standards and meet community expectations. Our governance framework is described in our Constitution.
