Abstract

Thanks to IAYT, Yoga therapists have a forum where we can find one another, collaborate, research, educate the public, and have a professional association to call home. IAYT's mission is to establish Yoga as a recognized and respected therapy. I fully support and believe in IAYT's mission. I am a practitioner of Yoga therapy, combining physical therapy, Yoga, and Ayurveda to specialize in women's health, chronic pain, and orthopedic injuries, and am the founder and director of a Yoga therapist training program. Having wellfamiliarized myself with the definitions of Yoga therapy from each of the current Yoga therapy programs in the U.S., and having followed the discussions about standards in Yoga therapy on the Integrator Blog (theintegratorblog.com) and in IAYT's publications, I humbly offer what I believe would be a positive step in the future of the recognition of Yoga therapy as a healing therapeutic discipline in the U.S.
