Regional Iyengar Yoga Associations
There are 12 independent regional Iyengar Yoga associations throughout the United States. These regional associations operate independently and separately from IYNAUS. Regional associations may host or sponsor their own events and offer their own member benefits.
All regional associations, while independently operated, seek to educate the public on the art, science, and philosophy of yoga taught by B.K.S. Iyengar and his family.
Each regional association nominates a regional representative to sit on the IYNAUS Board of Directors. The Pune Constitution, a guide approved by Mr. Iyengar for the governance of associations worldwide, calls for this representative form of governance. Purchase of a membership includes a one year membership to IYNAUS—the national association— in addition to a regional association of the member’s choice.
