Home >> Yoga voluntary service >>  Staff

A certain number of permanent voluntary personnel (staff) lives and works in every Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centre or Ashram. Apart from the daily common yoga and meditation practice, they completely dedicate their time and energy to selfless voluntary service to enable the different activities of the ashram or centre.

Most applicants for a staff programme have already completed the Sivananda Teachers’ Training Course (TTC), but this is not a prerequisite.
