WE PREVENT A CHILD FROM GOING ON THE STREET !
Yoga Bharati Bay Area Chapter is happy to share our efforts and achievements for 2019. Our Motto — transform the world, one individual at a time. Yoga Bharati is a holistic, evidence based, open system of yoga. We borrow from the ancient Hindu classical yoga texts in bringing holistic yoga to the society.
We Prevent news from Happening. As Patanjali says - ‘heyam dukham anagatam’ — yoga helps prevent social disharmony and unrest leading to abuse, divorce, crimes, and drug addictions. Yoga is a panacea in establishing social order.
Yes we do not support an orphan child or rehabilitate an abused destitute. But we prevent the child from becoming orphan or abused; and a woman from getting battered or molested in the first place. We serve yoga to the society. We offer our humble gratitude to all our volunteers, paid and not paid in many ways.
We have contributed in the following fields:
Summit Estate - A Drug Rehabilitation Center
Blind and Community Centers
Seniors
Kids
Corporate Sectors
Yoga Therapy and and Stress Management
Stop Diabetes Movement
Teacher Training
Temples, Schools, and Colleges
Outreach - Sevathon, Yoga Yagna (Yogathon), International Day of Yoga and health fairs
Yoga Excellence and Enrichment
Who are we?
We are not just “Yet Another Yoga Studio”. We are an institution of yoga. We are affiliated with Vivekananda Yoga Research Foundation (SVYASA), a yoga university in India that has a rich background of research based application of holistic yoga. We cater to the modern society's needs without diluting the knowledge as a means of commercialization.
We thank Summit Estate for trusting us with providing yoga to their clients
Our Seniors yoga class participants bring joy to our teachers, volunteers, and all of our staff with their innocent carefree laughter
Our kids yoga classes are filled up to brim. We conduct field trips, health education for kids and parents through parenting workshops
We are the Yoga for Diabetes providers for Sewa International’s Stop Diabetes Project
Our volunteers and staff conduct yoga and Stress Management workshops in different companies and offices
Our volunteers teach free yoga at Santa Clara Blind Center as well as at San Jose Community Center
We conduct Yogathon at Sevathon. We conduct yoga yagna for community awareness in both winter and summer.
Therapeutic Yoga is our Core Competency. Yoga Bharati chapters in the US have helped more than 5000 people in the last 10 years providing yoga to help their health conditions.
Our yogi volunteers dedicate their evening and weekend hours teaching free yoga for close to 2 decades.
Our Gurus and Mentors bring yoga education to the public as a ‘Man Making, Character building assimilation of ideas’ as Swami Vivekananda quotes on education.
We wholeheartedly thank all our volunteers, clients, staff, and the leaders for taking part in this grand journey. Om ShantiH ShantiH ShantiH !
