Als yogadocente wil ik me graag inzetten om yoga toegankelijk te maken voor diegenen waarvoor yoga niet of onvoldoende bereikbaar is.
Iedereen, ongeacht je fysieke mogelijkheden en achtergrond, zou toegang moeten hebben tot yoga en de positieve effecten ervan.

Dat was voor mij een belangrijke reden om me aan te sluiten bij Accessible Yoga Ambassadors. 

Een netwerk van yogadocenten die zich inzet voor ditzelfde doel.
