What are the Potential Job Opportunities in Therapeutic Yoga?Upon completing the Therapeutic Yoga Program with Yoga Club, what are the available options for finding a job? Does the Therapeutic Yoga Certificate of Completion still need to be used alongside an academic program in therapy, etc.? The field of Yoga Therapy is exploding right now. There are many venues where you can explore offering your services. Right now there is no formal licensing for yoga therapists, so it is up to the individual how they would like to implement their training. Most likely, you would work doing private sessions with clients much like a personal trainer. You can work for yourself, work with a studio or for a healthcare practitioner. We recommend that you get liability insurance (much like a personal trainer) and of course get advanced training in yoga therapeutics (such as through our training) While it helps to have another degree (for example as a physical therapist or licensed counselor), it is not a requirement. In our program, we will offer sessions on yoga therapy as a business, and provide you with mentoring and guidance as to how to implement your specific skill set into a career offering therapeutic yoga. This is an evolving field in which the parameters are changing. We recommend you take a look at the website of our program director BalancedBody Yoga Therapy to give you an idea of how one can implement their training as a yoga therapist. You can also explore the International Association of Yoga Therapists website, where there are resources to assist you in designing a business for yourself. Pre-Requisites for Participation 1.
