About the Sivananda Yoga Tradition
The teachings of the Sivananda Yoga Centres originate from a classical yogic lineage rooted in the spiritual insights of Swami Sivananda (1887–1963), a renowned Indian yoga master. The essence of his teachings is to:
Serve, love, give, purify, meditate and realize.
His disciple, Swami Vishnudevananda (1927–1993), was entrusted with bringing these teachings to the West. He systematized the teachings into five principles for healthy living:
- Proper exercise
- Proper breathing
- Proper relaxation
- Proper diet
- Positive thinking and meditation
Take charge of your future through this journey of self-discovery. By developing positive qualities and optimistic attitudes, you will be learning skills which will uplift and shape your future. This opportunity of a lifetime will lead you to become an ambassador for peace and contribute positively to the transformation of the world.
“You are the architect of your own fate. You are the Master of your own destiny.”
— Swami Sivananda
“Peace must start within. Develop peace, health, and thought power for the good of humanity.”
— Swami Vishnudevananda
