Independent standards and practical tools to prevent abuse of power in yoga

safety & ethics center

dear yogaworld, we need to talk

Where there is power , there is abuse – and the world of yoga is no exception from that. While this practice is one that creates a supportive and beneficial environment for some, it also creates a breeding ground for unhealthy dynamics between teachers and students for others. With safer yoga, we work together with studios, clinicians and teachers to educate and prevent the abuse of power in the yoga and wellness world by providing resources, sharing expert opinions, and connecting victims to providers, helping them make sense out of what can be a complex and layered experience.
