Sivananda Ashram Karma Yoga Program is for those who seek to live life with a deeper understanding of their true nature. 

 

There is no requirement to follow any particular religion; yoga is the path of self-knowledge not an external belief system.

​

We follow the way of Integral Yoga which includes Jnana (the yoga of right knowledge) Bhakti (the yoga of devotion) Karma (the yoga of selfless service) Hatha (the yoga of the body and breath) and Raja(meditation).
