NAMASTA, North American Studio Alliance
The North American Studio Alliance, or NAMASTA, was founded by Bernard Slede in late 2002 after discussions with multiple mind-body and bodywork professionals like you. Bernard has been working with other mind-body authorities to empower professionals, and he has been a speaker at the Body Mind Spirit Conference.
NAMASTA’s mission is to provide a link and a resource for the community, to make it stronger.
Our audience has now grown to over 100,000 massage therapists, tens of thousands of bodyworkers and gentle movement teachers (Yoga, Pilates, Tai Chi, Qigong, NIA, Gyrotonic®…) and over 5,000 yoga and Pilates studios in North America.
