Siddha Yoga Peeth is the result of one man’s vision and persistence to help individuals learn the ancient wisdom, Shailendra Shivanand is a disciple of Avadhoot Baba Shivanand Ji. Shailendra Shivanand was inclined towards discovering the spiritual planes, his inclination lead him to embrace teachings of Swami Vivekanand, Bhagwan Nityananda (Ganesh Puri) and many ascended masters of India. His search lead him further to his calling and he finally found his Guru under whom he was then initiated as a Siddha Sadhak. He believes one must always remain a Sadhak (seeker). With this attitude, the infinite will miraculously lead one to their true calling.
The Yoga Teachers Training courses at Siddha Yoga Peeth are designed to unleash ones desire to know the self and merge the three levels of consciousness – Physical, Psychological & Philosophical knowledge.

The Level 1 teachers training program is a 200-hour course. The Level 2 program is a 300-hours course for students who have successfully completed Level 1.
Yoga means “the control of the mind”; Ashtanga means “eight limbs.” Primarily, the purification in Ashtanga is of the first four limbs – Yama (moral codes), Niyama ( Self-purification and study), Asana ( posture) Pranayama ( breath control). The external purification is can be corrected, however the internal purification requires an extensive cleansing practices – Pratyahara (sense control), Dharana (concentration) Dhyana (meditation) Samadhi (merging with infinite).
