The Shambhava School of Yoga

“You are not far from the state of
pure Truth,  pure Cosciousness,
and pure Bliss that you are seeking.
Even when you are in your darkest
hour it is very close to you.”

H.H.  Sri Shambhavananda (Babaji)
Founder of the Shambhava School of Yoga

The Shambhava School of Yoga is the name of the yoga school founded by Sri Shambhavananda (Babaji) 35 years ago in Boulder, Colorado. Students of the Shambhava School operate a number of ashrams and centers throughout the U.S. and foreign countries as well.  Babaji began the Konalani Yoga Ashram here in Hawaii about 10 years ago.  Students from across the globe now arrive to study and practice Shambhava Yoga as well as soak in the sweetness of the Aloha state.

Shambhava Yoga draws from the rich tapestry of yogic teachings to explain how to use the circumstances of our own lives to grow consciously. The term Shambhava refers to the natural state of being that exists within and that can be experienced through the practices of yoga. Shambhava Yoga encompasses the following elements:

• Meditation practices to bring clarity,
  focus and the release of psychic tension
• Sanskrit chanting and kirtan to cultivate joy,
  harmony and inter-connection with others
• Cultivation of conscious awareness, openness to growth
  and dedication to selfless service
