Yoga Therapy Today
Dan Seitz, JD, EdD
IAYT, NAMA and YA Announce

"An Overview of Regulatory Issues for Yoga, Yoga Therapy, and Ayurveda" by Daniel Seitz, JD, EdD.

This is an invited paper forthcoming in the 2010 International Journal of Yoga Therapy.

We are publishing this early because of the current work of the IAYT Educational Standards Committee and hence the timeliness of this article.

Financial support for the research and writing of this article was provided by IAYT, the National Ayurvedic Medical Association (NAMA) and Yoga Alliance (YA). The purpose is to serve our common goal of well-informed communication and decisions in this complicated and challenging area. Free access to all is provided as a public service.

Letters to NCCAM

In preparing for its next strategic plan, the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) solicited input from stakeholders. Yoga is one of the most popular CAM therapies and we consider IAYT to be a significant stakeholder. We were inspired and encouraged by the Academic Consortium for Complementary and Health Care (ACCAHC). In addition to their own carefully crafted letter, ACCAHC also encouraged individual members to send in their own letters, while also providing well researched and insightful background material to the issues at hand for all. IAYT, together with Yoga Alliance (YA) and the National Ayurvedic Medical Association (NAMA), make up the Traditional World Medicine Group within ACCAHC.

IAYT Board Liason to the Standards Committee
 

The IAYT Educational Standards Committee

This committee, chosen from volunteers from IAYT Member schools, is charged with developing recommendations to the IAYT Board about entry level standards for the training of Yoga Therapists and related issues. Preliminary recommendations are due by July, 2011 and final recommendations one year later.  Anyone may follow this, and IAYT members may contribute to this discussion on IAYT's Digital Resources Library, in the Group, "Member Schools and the Educational Standards Committee."
