Yoga Teachers Listing

Teachers, if you find your name is not listed in this way, please use the links at the base of the results page to add your name to the BWY database directly.

Yoga Teaching Scams

Watch out for bogus e-mails requesting one to one yoga teaching, be very suspect of any request where the sender does not reveal who they really are. The scam usually involves asking for rates for teaching yoga (no doubt other disciplines as well) they then accept your rates and send money order to cover the cost, they usually make a "mistake" and send too much requesting that you send them the surplus back! Needless to say their bank draft looks OK and will be accepted by banks, but will bounce later, by then they hope to have received your refund and cashed it so watch out.
