The World Yoga Center is one of my favorite places on earth.  

It is a refuge for me.  

A sacred space which I have never before had in my life.

 A haven for Yoga students for over 38 years, the World Yoga Center was created with a pioneering and idealistic spirit at a time when many people were passionate for higher consciousness and Truth. Its vision today as it was in 1972 is to encourage students to develop their relationship with their own essential Self so they can live life more fully, from the vantage point of higher awareness. 

The World Yoga Center welcomes students of all ages, traditions and backgrounds, at every level of ability. Through the Yoga practices, students embark on a transformative journey of  awakenment while developing bodies that glow with health and fitness.
