Yoga is not just a practice; it is a legacy. Discover the world’s oldest organized yoga center, where we have preserved and shared the scientific, householder approach to yoga since 1918.

On Guru Purnima, we bow in gratitude to our Gurus who have illuminated countless lives. This is our lineage, from Paramhamsa Madhavadas Ji to myself, a sacred chain of wisdom that continues to guide us.

We pay tribute to the legendary Shri Yogendra Ji, founder of The Yoga Institute. On his 36th death anniversary, we honor his extraordinary contribution of bringing Yoga to the common householder.

On the birth anniversary of Smt. Sitadevi Yogendraji, fondly known as Mother, we celebrate her vision. She was a true pioneer who paved the way for women's empowerment through Yoga.

This is a miniature model of our founder, Shri Yogendra Ji. He was instrumental in the evolution of Yoga and introduced it to the Western world by opening the first Yoga center in New York in 1920.

This model honors Smt. Sitadevi Ji, who we call Mother. She challenged the notion that Yoga was only for men and authored the first book on Yoga for women, supporting our mission to spread Yoga to all.

This is a model of Dr. Jayadeva Yogendra, who we called Dr. Sahab. As President of The Yoga Institute, he continued the legacy with deep wisdom and practical solutions, guiding people with his scholarly brilliance.

This is a model of myself. I am humbled to carry forward this 100-year legacy, sharing the message of peace and balanced living with millions across the globe through our sessions and books.

Did you know the world's first Yoga museum is right here at The Yoga Institute in Mumbai? Inaugurated in 1987, it takes you on a journey through Yoga's ancient roots. You can even take a virtual tour on Google Arts & Culture.

Being felicitated at the 8th DAE National Yoga Conference at BARC. It is always a privilege to interact with audiences and share the profound wisdom of Yoga for a healthy, disease-free life.

A moment of signing documents at the 8th DAE National Yoga Conference. My work involves not just teaching but also collaborating with institutions to spread the authentic message of Yoga.
