History of AYM

In September 2005, it became apparent that a standard for yoga teacher training at the national level (in India) was necessary. Yogi Chetan Mahesh and other well-known yoga experts and great yoga Gurus decided to make a foundation to solve the matter and registered an organization named 'Association for Yoga and Meditation' with the government of India.

The AYM Yoga Studio in Rishikesh and other training institutes follow traditional and ancient yoga practices with a scientific approach. In 2005, AYM Yoga Academy of India also got the status as a National Organization of India and became a member of the (IYF) International Yoga Federation. AYM also sets standards for yoga study centers in India according to the guidelines of the IYF.

Graduates from AYM can register at IYF and the Yoga Alliance USA. There are national yoga associations in most of the countries, which organize yoga activities and sports at the national level. The winners at National level Sports Activities in India can represent at international levels held by IYF. In 2006, AYM passed a resolution to make an administering body for keeping the international standards of yoga by the name of (IYA) Indian Yoga Alliance.
