Grace Yoga, LLC, teachers, contractors and employees agree and adhere to the California Yoga Teachers Association Code of Conduct.
The members of the California Yoga Teachers Association recognize the sensitive nature of the student-teacher relationship. We believe that it is the responsibility of the yoga teacher to ensure a safe and protected environment in which a student can grow physically, mentally, and spiritually.
In order to protect the student in this potentially vulnerable relationship, as well as to uphold the highest professional standards for yoga teachers, we agree to accept the following foundational principles:
In all professional matters, we maintain practices and teaching procedures that protect the public and advance the profession.
It is our responsibility to maintain relationships with students on a professional basis.
We respect the integrity and protect the welfare of all persons with whom we are working and have an obligation to safeguard information about them that has been obtained in the course of the instruction process.
As yoga teachers, we have an ethical concern for the integrity and welfare of our assistants, students, and employees. These relationships are maintained on a professional and confidential basis. We recognize our influential position with regard to current and former assistants, students, and employees, and avoid exploiting their trust and dependency. We make every effort to avoid dual relationships with such persons that could impair our judgment or increase the risk of personal and/or financial exploitation.
As yoga teachers, we relate to and cooperate with other professional persons in our immediate community and beyond. We are part of a network of health care professionals and are expected to develop and maintain interdisciplinary and inter-professional relationships.
Any advertising, including announcements, public statements, and promotional activities, done by us or for us is undertaken for the purpose of helping the public make informed judgements and choices.
