Classes follow a classical approach (Sivananda tradition) and are taught in the spirit of Karma Yoga, or selfless service. The center's director is Gajananam, a direct disciple of Swami Vishnu-devananda who has been practicing and teaching yoga and meditation for over 20 years. As a spiritual center, our major goal is spiritual practice and service.
