How to become a member of KYTA (for the first time)
All teachers and students of KY can register with KYTA. To do this you need to complete two forms, available as downloads on this page.
Step 1 (FOR NEW MEMBERS ONLY): Download and complete the KYTA Membership Application Form:
KYTA Membership Application Form
This form has a section for calculating the amount you should send for (a) membership and (b) insurance and fees. Both are calculated so that you will only pay for the remaining number of months until the end of September whenever you apply.
If you want to apply only for KYTA membership and no insurance because you have already insurance with another company, then please complete and return the form with a copy of your current insurance policy document.
If you intend to teach, you MUST have insurance. KYTA has arranged a group policy with DSC Yoga-Link Insurance for the benefit of members. For more details of what the insurance cover provides, please download:
DSC Yoga-Link Summary of Benefits Services
Step 2: Download and complete the DSC Yoga-Link Application Form:
DSC Yoga-Link Application Form
NOTE: This application should be made in your legal name (not in your spiritual name) as it is a legal requirement.
Step 3: When both forms are completed and you have written your cheque for membership and insurance, payable to "DSC Insurance Services," send it all to:
DSC Insurance Services, Swithins, Lodge Farm, Tilbury Road, FARNHAM, Surrey GU9 8HU.
DSC Insurance have alternative methods of payment. You will need to telephone them if you wish to pay by BACS transfer or a credit/debit card. The phone number is on the forms.
Already a KYTA Member?
Every year your Membership and Insurance will need to be renewed. In September you should receive an email invitation from DSC-Insurance to renew, but if you miss this and do not renew, your insurance may lapse. The year runs from 1st October to 31st September.
You can renew Membership and Insurance by completing the two forms below and sending them to DSC Insurance with your payment.

Members Area
If you are a KYTA member, you will get access to the Member's Area, where you find information about the CEU accredited courses system and the reports of the KYTA Annual General Meetings. In order to get your password after you have become a member, you go to the Member's Area, and click on "Register".
We also have been given the laws of prosperity. The tradition of Das Vandh is the sharing of the tenth part (tithing) of whatever we earn in charity, in the same way as we give the first tenth of our day when we do sadhana, and the first tenth of our body - our head - when we fall in love with the Guru.
Gurudakshina is an offering to the source of the teachings in pure gratitude. As Kundalini Yoga teachers, we are asked to share 11% of everything we earn from teaching activities with one of the organisations within the 3HO family. If you would like to serve the Kundalini Yoga Teachers in the U.K. and the teachings of Yogi Bhajan, you are welcome to donate to KYTA.
