The York Rite
The York Rite is a collection of Masonic appendant bodies which a Mason may join after he becomes a Master Mason. The three main bodies in the York Rite are Royal Arch Masonry, Cryptic Masonry, and the Knights Templar. Each body confers its own degrees with its own lessons and traditions, but they all complement and build off the foundation of the three degrees of Freemasonry.
