Change is not
something that we
should fear. Rather,
it is something that
we should welcome.
For without
change, nothing in
this world would
ever grow or blossom, and no one in
this world would
ever move forward
to become the person theyre meant
to be.

The IYASW board mission is to help Iyengar Yoga teachers promote their classes, to inform more people
about Iyengar Yoga and to bring them its unique benefits. The board wants to urge students to "Look for
the Mark" in choosing a teacher the Iyengar Yoga Certification Mark.
There have been concerns within our community about non-certified teachers who have stated or advertised that they teach Iyengar Yoga. Certified Iyengar Yoga Teachers find it disappointing that others, who
have not followed the certification path outlined by Guruji, should claim authority to teach a subject we
hold dear. This patent was applied for at the request of BKS Iyengar and as part of IYNAUS's ongoing
efforts to protect the teachings of Mr. Iyengar and the future of Certified Iyengar Teachers and to show
respect for the Certification Mark, which represents years of study, practice and strict dedication to the
method.
IYNAUS is counting on us to help rectify this situation. If you hear or know of a non-certified person advertising that they teach Iyengar Yoga, please do not hesitate to let us know so we can contact the person
who is misstating their qualifications and inform them about our Certification process, the amount of work
required to earn the privilege of using the Iyengar name, and the name of a teacher who can help them
become certified if they are interested. Informing this person that it is Mr. Iyengar's request that only Certified Teachers use his name will bolster your case.
Our fall calendar is quite busy this year. First and foremost, our fall begins with a Summer Restorative
event on August 20, 10am to noon at Scottsdale Community College. Registration is free to all IYNAUS/
IYASW members., $5 for non-members. This year, we will be participating in the Yoga Rocks the Park,
on October 16 and October 23. You can find information for this event on www.yogarocksthepark.com.
Next year, we plan on participate in the Sedona Yoga Festival on March 9, 10, 11 and 12. You can find
more information for this event on www.sedonayogafestival.com.
