A Sanctuary for Body & Soul

The Salt Spring Centre of Yoga, founded in 1981, is a non-profit, working yoga community. The Centre’s cozy turn-of-the- century farmhouse and studio buildings sit amid 70 acres of meadows, forest and organic gardens on beautiful Salt Spring Island, British Columbia.

The Centre was founded in 1981 by Dharma Sara Satsang Society, a registered non-profit charitable organization. Inspired by Baba Hari Dass (affectionately known as Babaji), the members bought 69 acres of cedar forest and wild meadows, along with a run-down, turn-of-the-century farmhouse. Over the decades, the house and land have been lovingly renovated and cultivated by thousands of volunteers.

Today, the Salt Spring Centre of Yoga is a thriving spiritual retreat with a large organic garden that supplies most of the produce for the Centre’s delicious vegetarian meals. We offer our own yoga-related programs and also rent the Centre facilities to other like-minded groups for their own retreats. We teach classical ashtanga yoga, Patanjali’s traditional eight-limbed system of yoga as taught to us by Babaji, and strongly encourage the cultivation of Karma Yoga, the path of selfless service.
