Welcome to the Australasian
Dru Professional Network

The professional body for Dru Yoga Teachers, Dru Meditation Teachers, Dru Yoga Therapists and Ayurveda Health Coaches.

ABOUT THE DPN

Your Dru Professional Network (DPN) is standing behind you and your qualification.

Welcome to the professional body for Dru teachers—keeping you up-to-date with all the latest developments.

It’s the pathway to higher learning, qualifications, professional development and a vibrant interactive worldwide community.

In Dru, the major passion we all share is our love for yoga, meditation and Ayurveda. It is through these practices that we want to help people find a healthier and more empowered way of living.

You can now pursue well recognised accredited Dru qualifications in Yoga Therapy, Ayurveda Health Coaching, as well as different applications of Yoga and Meditation. 

To ensure your students, clients and professional bodies are aware of your learning background and professional status your DPN membership type will inform them. Refer to the table below.  

Or contact the Dru Australasia office to confirm the correct use of these different titles/appellations. They are world wide in their application and harmonise with standards used by other bodies internationally. 

Professional Support

We are here to support you and also to ensure you have access to opportunities to keep up-to-date with developments in your chosen field.

We also want to offer you opportunities to deepen your own personal practice, which enables you to progress with increasing confidence and offer even more to your yoga students.

It's a win-win!


Different Types of DPN Membership

DPN Trainees

DPN Trainees are people enrolled in their first Dru foundation qualification (for example in yoga teacher training) and are actively studying to complete it.  We require our trainees to adhere to relevant parts of the Dru Code of Conduct and grants them access to some of the materials available to full DPN members.

DPN Associate

DPN Associate membership is available to 

- graduates of any Dru modality who are no longer practising what they qualified to do, and do not use their qualification professionally

- course participants who have attended all modules of a Dru course and completed all payments, but have chosen to do the course for personal development, ie they have not undertaken the final assessment. 

DPN Associate members have access to the DPN website and DPN member discounts, including discounts on Dru Online Studio.
