These teachers have achieved both Certified Anusara yoga teacher licensing and Yoga Alliance E-RYT 500 designations and meet additional requirements. A directory of CATT’s will be posted to the teacher directory.

Subject Matter Specialists (SMS) – Beginning in 2016 – The School has created a new category for both currently licensed Anusara yoga teachers and others that are experts in their fields. These people might have skill in areas like anatomy, kinesiology, ayurveda, yoga philosophy, business management, or in teaching special populations. SMS’s may lead teacher training modules that are specifically related to their field of expertise. SMS that are not current Anusara yoga teachers are called Associate Subject Matter Specialists. A directory of SMSs is posted to the teacher directory.
