Yog Coordinators
Over the next few weeks, we will be adding some resources [e.g. disclaimer statements, presentation material, details on local community projects and initiatives, addresses of yog class centres, etc.] on this page which will be of specific benefit to those who attended H.H. Swami Ramdevji's Yog Teachers' shivirs [camps] in Haridwar during Sept 2006 and to the general public who may want to know of local contact names and/or addresses of their nearest yog class centres.
H.H. Swami Ramdevji and Acharya Balkrishanji have selected five UK-based coordinators, whose prime role is to provide a mentoring service to attendees [or anyone new who has attended one of H.H. Swamiji's shivirs and now aspires to teach his yog/pranayam techniques], helping them with issues related to setting up their own yog/pranayam classes and to facilitate a network of PYP yog teachers.
Yog teachers MUST NOT use the PYP UK letterhead or commit the charity to any implicit or explicit legal bindings in any communication without the specific permission of PYP UK. If in doubt, please contact your coordinator.
Details of the five coordinators chosen by H.H. Swamiji and Acharyaji are given in the table below:
