Welcome to Sri Pathanjali Yoga Mandira SPYSS GOWRIBIDANUR, a nurturing haven in Gauribidanur dedicated to fostering well-being and community through the ancient practice of yoga. Initially established in 1980 as a modest yoga camp in Tumkur, Karnataka, SPYSS has since blossomed into a global organization with over 700 branches, led by the inspiring stewardship of Chief Convener Shri A R Ramaswamyanna. Rooted in the blessings and teachings of revered spiritual guides, our mission is to enrich lives and strengthen communities through the transformative power of yoga.
At SPYSS GOWRIBIDANUR, the guiding principles are Sanskara (value-based behavior), Sanghatane (identifying with a larger cause), and Seve (service to humanity). These core values are seamlessly integrated into our daily yoga sessions, which aim to cultivate healthy lifestyles, dynamic personalities, and a harmonious approach to life. Through consistent practice and community involvement, a silent but profound transformation occurs, resulting in stronger, happier families and a more positive society.
The heart of SPYSS is its exceptional network of over 40,000 dedicated voluntary teachers who generously offer their time and expertise without seeking any remuneration. This spirit of selfless service translates into a robust and accessible yoga program that addresses various aspects of life, including health, moral education for children, mentorship for youth, family counseling, and stress management.
Join the movement at Sri Pathanjali Yoga Mandira SPYSS GOWRIBIDANUR and become part of a global family committed to holistic well-being, personal growth, and community service. Whether a seasoned practitioner or a curious beginner, experience the unparalleled benefits of yoga in a supportive and welcoming environment.
