Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centre

About Institution

The Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centre has been teaching yoga in Trivandrum since 1987. Since then we have, through the grace of our gurus been able to propogate the teaching of yoga to the community. We are centrally located within the city, behind the Padmanabhaswamy Temple in West Fort. The Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centre is a part of the International Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centres (ISYVC), a non-profit organization run by voluntary staff and dedicated to the aim of disseminating the knowledge of yoga.

Swami Vishnudevananda synthesized the ancient wisdom of yoga into five basic principles that could easily be incorporated into one's daily lifestyle to provide the foundation for healthy living. The teachings at the Centre are based around these 'Five Points of Yoga'.
