Upaya Yoga is entirely a creation of Prem Krishna Ananda. It is born from his own experience and personal journey into yoga. Krishna approached yoga for the first time in his early twenties and since then he never left its path. The development of a strong self-practice brought him to share with others his accomplishments and discovery. This led to many years of teaching experience in India and in Europe.
The professional success and personal gratification gathered along those years eventually merged into the idea of creating a school completely based on Krishna’s method and vision. The search for an ideal location ended in Arambol (Goa) where the centre is currently based.
