Yoga is a vast discipline that is aimed at integrating mind, body and spirit to achieve a state of enlightenment or self-realization. Yoga is science and works wonders when integrated into our daily life.
It works on all aspects of the person; the physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual. The different branches of yoga prescribe different approaches and techniques, but ultimately lead to the same goal of enlightenment. The Sanskrit word “Yoga” is derived from the root word “Yuj” meaning to harness or join together. Hence Yoga is commonly understood to mean union. The union referred to is generally understood as the union of jeevatma (individual self) with the paramatma (the universal self).
It has been our Founder’s vision that students of Omega are balanced in all aspects – body, mind and soul. To realize His vision, Omega students are taught values and skills as a part of their academic curriculum. Additionally, yoga and meditation is part of the student’s Physical Education program and is seamlessly weaved into their day order. Students from Grades I to VIII are taught yoga by trained, full-time members of faculty at the campus.
