About Y.E.S.
We are a non-profit organization that provides a community for like-minded people --
teachers,
students, and
organizations. Y.E.S. is a great way to stay connected to the community. We offer a listing of events, many of which are eligible for continuing education units (CEUs). Members also receive discounts on yoga-related events and workshops (many of our presentations are
FREE to members).
Followers of All Yoga Styles Are Welcome
Our History
In 1998 a group of yoga teachers pulled together to create an organization for yoga teachers to learn from each other and to spread information on the benefits of yoga throughout San Diego County.
This community brought yoga teachers from diverse traditions, educating and enriching each others' understanding of the various styles of yoga and sharing the power of yoga in their lives. In November 1998 this group created the Yoga Education Society, a non-profit organization.
