The Sivananda Yoga Centre is a partner of Toronto school board
The Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centre at 77 Harbord Street in Toronto has been teaching peoplet o “spread peace, health and joy through yoga”. Noahora Sierra, 57, who is from Colombia and has settled in Canada, has been doing yoga asanas five days a week and meditation twice a week since 2012, and it has made a world of difference for her. Doing yoga gives her a positive feeling, said Sierra. She and her daughter are regular visitors at the centre, established in 1962.
Times have changed and with it the forms of yoga, too, have changed. The centre, however, still follows the principles established by Swami Sivananda, one of the most prolific yoga teachers of all time. For the students and trainers, the centre becomes an extension of their family. Many don’t go back. Silvida Vukadinovic, 52, left her home in Yugoslavia 27 years ago to learn yoga after she attended lectures by Swami Vishnudevananda, a disciple of Sivananda.
