How to renew your EMD UK membership

If you are an EMD UK Pro or Pro Enhanced member, your membership will be active for a year after your date of purchase and will then need to be renewed at the end of that year period. For example, if you bought your EMD UK Pro membership on 21/10/2026, your EMD UK membership renewal date would be 21/10/2027.

You can easily renew your EMD UK membership in the  membership platform, either in advance of your renewal date or on your renewal date. If you would like to check when your renewal date is, log into the EMD UK membership platform and, underneath the “Your Profile” title on your dashboard, you will be able to see your valid from date and expiry date.

When your membership comes up for renewal, you will need to follow these steps:

  1. Log into your account and click the black arrow in the bottom right of your membership card.
  2. Work your way through the form that appears, updating any details you may need to change and uploading any certificates or qualifications you need to validate your membership. Remember, EMD UK Pro membership is only applicable to those who hold a valid Level 2 qualification (or Level 3 Yoga or Pilates). You can find out more about what certificates qualify you for Pro Membership here.
  3. At the end of the form, you will need to enter your payment details and check out.

If you would like to sign up for auto renewals, making the renewal process much easier for the following year, you can do so by:

  1. Clicking “View Profile” on your dashboard and navigating to the “EMD UK Membership” section of your profile.
  2. Click the three black dots at the end of your membership and choose “Start Auto Renewal” from the dropdown list.
  3. Follow the process to set up your autorenewal for the following year.

Renew your EMD UK membership here or, if you have any issues, please contact the team and we’ll help you through the process.
