| The California
Yoga Teachers Association was founded in 1973 by a group of yoga
teachers who wanted to connect and support each other through education
and friendship. To that end we created a training program which eventually
evolved into the first Nationally recognized two-year Yoga Teacher
Training Program. Additionally, a small group of us met one day in 1975
to turn our newsletter into a magazine which we named Yoga
Journal.
Today CYTA functions
as a partial owner of Yoga Journal and as a professional organization for
yoga teachers with a Code
of Professional Standards. Professional liability insurance, formerly
provided through CYTA for our members, is now administered through The
Yoga Journal Benefits Plus Program. (for details, visit www.yogajournal.com/benefitsplus).
Our future projects are designed to continue supporting the education of
yoga teachers individually and the profession of yoga teaching generally.
