Who are we and why?

BAYT was established in july 2025 by our great team mentioned below to​ create awareness of what yoga therapy is.

It's benefits for various health conditions, towards the general public and towards health care institutions in Belgium.To promote the recognition of the therapeutic benefits of yoga therapy in the healthcare sector. Advocate the integration of yoga therapy within Belgian healthcare by showcasing scientific evidence of the effectiveness of yoga therapy for various health conditions. Engage with Belgian institutions for subsidies / reimbursement of yoga therapy sessions in order to make it more widely available, and also accessible for the vulnerable populations.

We want to create a publicly available listing of yoga therapists in Belgium, who are members of the BAYT. Define membership criteria, rights and responsibilities and check eligibility (accreditation).

We want to stablish a networking, support and training platform to connect yoga therapy professionals and foster exchanges of best practices, provide support related to client cases, self-care, and startup management based on need.
