I am from South Africa and teach Yoga to my best friend
once a week. Do I really need to be registered to teach Yoga?
In answer to your question, " No, you don't have to be
registered. The type of 'unofficial' Yoga practice you mention
exists, even in strictly regulated countries."
One of the main reasons Yoga teachers go through a
certification process and later another registration process, is
to cover themselves from potential malpractice or negligence
lawsuits.
A Yoga instructor may also pick up Yoga teacher liability
insurance, for added protection.
This is a sad state of affairs when healers and Yoga teachers
have to worry about being sued by their students and clients.
Unfortunately, the temptation to sue a Yoga instructor, for
their assets or possessions, exists in many countries and
cultures.
However, in the case of teaching Yoga to close and honorable
friends, you should be safe.
