About Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Center

Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Center is a global institution dedicated to preserving and sharing the classical teachings of Swami Sivananda and Swami Vishnudevananda. Rooted in Hatha and Raja Yoga, the center offers a holistic approach to well-being, integrating physical, mental, and spiritual practices to promote overall harmony. Its teachings are structured around the Five Points of Yoga, which emphasize proper exercise through asanas, breath control with pranayama, deep relaxation, a vegetarian diet, and positive thinking combined with meditation. This comprehensive system helps practitioners cultivate a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle. At the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Center, students can participate in yoga classes, meditation sessions, teacher training programs (TTC), and spiritual retreats. The structured yet welcoming environment provides a space for individuals of all levels to deepen their practice and embark on a journey of self-discovery. With a focus on self-discipline, mindfulness, and a sattvic (pure) way of living, the center encourages individuals to integrate yoga philosophy into their daily lives. Through its worldwide network of ashrams and centers, the Sivananda tradition continues to inspire people to embrace a more peaceful, harmonious, and spiritually enriched life, staying true to the ancient wisdom of yoga and Vedanta philosophy.
