Integrative yoga stress a personalized practice tailored to the individual’s needs, so therapists must recognize the abilities of clients    

Salary: $45,000

Education: Yoga therapist must be trained in many areas of health therapy, healing and overall wellness. Schools of yoga train many from many different perspectives. Some many include separate units on Ayurveda, although this is not required to become a yoga therapist and does not impact the knowledge necessary to become a competent yoga therapist.
