What is The Yoga Fellowship of Northern Ireland (YFNI)?
We are an umbrella body in Northern Ireland for those interested in Yoga. We are a not-for-profit organisation run by volunteers to:
- promote Yoga and its benefits
- train teachers
- improve the standard of Yoga teaching
- provide Yoga classes for all in our community
How is YFNI run?
The Fellowship is run by a committee of volunteers. The Committee’s members are voted in by our members each year at our Annual General Meeting.
