Choosing a Yoga Therapist
Yoga therapy is first and foremost yoga—a long-established, holistic discipline that acknowledges the multidimensional nature of the human being. Working with a yoga therapist, either one-on-one or in a group, can be a transformative approach to health and healing. Approaches vary widely, however, as does the education, training, and experience of yoga therapists. We encourage you to review qualifications and local reputations carefully. 
Because a sanctioned definition of "yoga therapist" does not yet exist, we encourages you to do your research and ask potential yoga therapist to provide in their professional profile a summary of what they do, including special skills or areas of expertise, along with information on their training, general education and experience.
