The primary aim of the Foundation is to bring YOGA to the Filipino people. The study of Yoga also brings with it the study of the rich cultures of India and the East, its spiritual traditions, philosophies and art. The Foundation operates with three major programs :
YOGA MISSION performs the primary functions of the Foundation.
Team Yoga 2002 is the flagship project of the Yoga Mission. The goal of this project is to bring free yoga instruction to the underprivileged youth. We are working towards the creation and management of a PHILIPPINE YOGA TEAM composed of the Mission's best students. Team Yoga 2002 will travel to different venues performing Yoga in schools, centers, and theaters. The pilot program is already underway in Pasay, Makati and Quezon Cities.
It is through this touring production that the Foundation hopes to create a public awareness and interest in Yoga.
Teacher Trainees - Yoga Mission administers a teacher training program to accredit new yoga teachers in the Philippines. Teacher Trainees need to complete 150 hours for accreditation.
YOGA CHALLENGE
Yoga Challenge works with yoga in the sports and fitness arena. Yoga can be taught in gyms and centers. Many special routines and regimens can be designed to fit the needs of teams and organizations.
Part of the Yoga Challenge Program is the The Yoga Tour which brings highly rated instructors to gyms around Manila and other parts of the country for short courses and intensives. Recently, Jivamukti founders Shannon Gannon and David Life were guests of the foundation and conducted classes around Manila.
YOGA DISCOVERY
Yoga Discovery is the the promotion and dissemination of Yoga to the professional world and the consumer. Yoga can be used in corporate wellness programs and may even be used in team building programs. The Foundation will be happy to create programs that will fit your company's needs.
