The nature of yoga (union of body, mind and spirit), on or off the mat, is to open the body and psyche through which profound transformation can occur. As teachers of yoga, we are stewards of the trust our students place in us. It is our responsibility to uphold and foster a safe and sacred environment in which to allow this work to happen. It is essential that anyone teaching yoga have a high degree of personal integrity and maintain clear boundaries in the role of serving the students.
Holding ourselves as teachers places us in a position of power over our students, however subtle or obvious. We become their mentors, facilitators and helpers. Some students may idealize us or project that we are wiser or more evolved than they are.
As professionals , we must remain aware of this power dynamic and never exploit the vulnerability of a student for personal gain or gratification. Students need to have a place to come where they can safely open their hearts, observe their own deeper dynamics and be free from sexual distractions and conditioned behaviors. Because of this, we ask that yoga teachers adhere to the code of ethics as outline by Yoga Alliance:
YOGA ALLIANCE CODE OF CONDUCT:
1. Uphold the integrity of my vocation by conducting myself in a professional and conscientious manner.
2. Acknowledge the limitations of my skills and scope of practice and where appropriate, refer students to seek alternative instruction, advice, treatment, or direction.
3. Create and maintain a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for the practice of yoga.
4. Encourage diversity actively by respecting all students regardless of age, physical limitations, race, creed, gender, ethnicity, religion affiliation, or sexual orientation.
5. Respect the rights, dignity, and privacy of all students.
6. Avoid words and actions that constitute sexual harassment.
7. Adhere to the traditional yoga principles as written in the Yamas and Niyamas.
8. Follow all local government and national laws that pertain to my yoga teaching and business.
