Sivananda Yoga Centre Chennai

Sivananda Yoga Centre Chennai "Health is wealth, Peace of mind is happiness, Yoga shows the way." Swami Vishnudevanand The mission - to spread peace, health and joy through yoga.

The International Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centres is a non-profit organization named after Swami Sivananda, one of the most influential spiritual teachers of the 20th century and founded by his disciple Swami Vishnudevananda. All are welcome to come to our ashrams and centres to learn not only about how yoga can help maintain a healthy body but also how yogic philosophy, applied in daily life, can

help maintain a peaceful mind and spirit. In 1957, Swami Vishnudevananda on instructions from his guru, Swami Sivananda, came to the West to bring the teachings of yoga. He established the first Sivananda Yoga Vedanta centre in Montreal, Canada, in 1959 and to date there are close to 60 Sivananda locations (ashrams, yoga centres and affiliated centres) around the world. Over 26,000 teachers have been trained in the TTC programs. The Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Ashrams and Centres are recognized worldwide for teaching yoga authentically, preserving its purity and tradition dating back several thousand years. They also offer a wide range of programs and even the possibility for spiritual growth through Karma yoga as a temporary or full time staff program participant. Swami Vishnudevananda made the yogic teachings understandable and available to all by simplifying them into five points, showing specific ways to develop physical and mental health as well as spiritual growth through ~ Proper Exercise (Asanas), Proper Breathing (Pranayama), Proper Relaxation (Savasana), Proper Diet (vegetarian), Positive Thinking (Vedanta) and Meditation (Dhyana). Together with Swami Sivananda's revival of the yoga of synthesis tradition, which integrates the four paths of Yoga (Karma, Bhakti, Raja, Jnana), a well-balanced Sadhana (spiritual discipline) is achievable by those sincerely seeking for a change in their lives.

“Yoga doesn’t take your time. It gives you time.”

A Classical Sivananda Yoga Class is 90 minutes long, and yes, we know many of you have asked, “Can it be shorter?”

But there’s a reason Swami Vishnudevananda and his Master, Swami Sivananda, designed it this way.

In these 90 minutes, you’re not just stretching or breathing,
you’re giving your body the movement it craves,
your mind the stillness it needs,
and your heart the connection it longs for.

In today’s fast-paced world, time feels expensive. We understand that. That’s why we now also offer shorter sessions because something is always better than nothing.
But when you can, we encourage you to gift yourself those 90 minutes. Not as an expense, but as an investment in your health, clarity, and peace.

Because yoga doesn’t take your time
✨ It gives it back to you, in more meaningful ways. ✨

📍Join us for a class. Your future self will thank you. DM us for registration details. Om Namashivaya!

As we gear up for International Yoga Day 2025, we’re offering free yoga classes in celebration of this timeless practice.

Stop Scrolling. Start Breathing.

You’ve tried focus apps.
You’ve stepped away from screens.
Still, the mind keeps racing.

What if you gave yourself something deeper?
Not just a pause… but a practice.
A soft return to the breath.
A quiet space to settle.

Coming soon:
“Breath & Beyond” – A 10-session journey into Pranayama and Inner Stillness, in the tradition of Sivananda Yoga.

Gentle. Grounded. Open to all.
