Upaya Yoga School was founded in 2012 by Prem Krishna Ananda. Since the very beginning the guiding principle was to promote a rich variety of high-quality courses for the preservation and transmission of a knowledge rooted in the tradition of the Indian culture. Moreover, assumed that the human being cannot be defined by qualifications, titles, money, clothes and belongings; the idea on which Upaya was built is significantly broader and deeper.
Upaya wants to represent a trustworthy place for relaxation, self- inquiry and personal growth. A place where it is possible to step into a journey, which will lead to physical and spiritual wellness. In the fast-paced lifestyle of the modern society it became essential for the well-being of the individual to reconquer the time; in order to reconnect with the true Self and to re-appreciate a spiritual dimension, nowadays often forgotten.
Hence, regardless of the formula chosen to experience our School, we aim to convert the time spent with us into a life-long learning experience at all levels.
Since the opening, the number of students and visitors has constantly raised making of Upaya a vibrant and lively place with a rare and unique energy. Each year more than 300 persons from all over the world successfully graduate with us.
MISSION
Our mission is to preserve the authenticity of the core of yoga, as well as to spread its values and message without any sort of barriers.
In accordance to the beautiful words stated in the Bhagavad Gita: “Yoga is the journey of the self, through the self, to the self.”, each of our courses is inspired and driven by a pure holistic approach.
The classes are guided by our instructors to meet individual requirements, prioritizing the balance of body, mind and soul.
Our courses are designed to deliver in the most effective and natural way an in- depth knowledge of the main aspects of Yoga and to also gain an understanding of the multi dimensions of this ancient science. This comprehensive method allows the student to discover new areas of learning and explore new perspectives.
We teach to share knowledge and keep alive the curiosity and interest in the never ending yogic path.
A great emphasis is also put on the acquisition of communication and practical skills. These are indispensable to gain the right confidence and mind set to start a career as a mature teacher, whether wanted.
Upaya Yoga is open to all without any kind of discrimination.

We believe that once the individual begins to transform, as a natural consequence, his surroundings transforms too.
Upaya Yoga is a safe space where we value the uniqueness and potential of each human being.
We aim to spread and share yoga in the most genuine way, highlighting its true essence.
All our members are united by a real passion for yoga and faith in its power.

Preparing our students to move their first steps, as conscious teachers into the world, we hope to support a collective change based on the major principles of yoga.
