Yoga Day USA


Each year hundreds of yoga teachers and schools offer free or nearly free yoga workshops to Americans across the country. These professional Yoga Alliance Registered Teachers (RYT) and Schools (RYS) are committed to meeting the unique needs of their local communities and often use their events as a fundraiser for a local charity.

Thousands of Americans — the young and old, the flexible and not-so-flexible, athletes and couch potatoes and those of every heritage will discover, rediscover or continue with their current practice through a workshop perfect for them.

In the practice of karma yoga or service to others, these amazing yoga teachers and schools use their talents to help build community and change lives through yoga.

Yoga Day USA was created by Yoga Alliance, the international gold standard for professional yoga teachers and schools and the leader in setting standards that protect the health and welfare of society.
