.yoga is a proposed TLD in ICANN's New gTLD Program.

Current Applicant

  1. Top Level Domain Holdings Ltd., one of 68 applications that the company has filed for on its own behalf.[1] This applicant submitted a Public Interest Commitment, which can be downloaded here.

Previous Applicants

  1. Donuts (Victor Falls, LLC), one of 307 TLDs applied for by Donuts. This applicant submitted a Public Interest Commitment, which can be downloaded here.
  2. Uniregistry, one of 53 TLDs applied for by Frank Schilling's company.

Both Donuts and Uniregistry withdrew their applications after an April 2014 private auction that was administered by Applicant Auction, in which TLDH (Minds and Machines) won the rights to the string.[2]

TLDH & $15mm Auction Funding

On February 26 2013, Top Level Domain Holdings Ltd. announced that it had entered into a funding agreement worth $15 million to be used in the case of auction for a specific unnamed TLD. The investor will not receive ownership of the TLD but a share of future revenues. TLDH did not name the TLD that the funds are directed for, and it is in 11 head to head contentions and 12 featuring more than one contender.[3]
