The Beginnings

Yoga is a system of self development that works on all levels, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Its Sanskrit root 'yog' means to unite, as in the English word yoke, and means the union of all life with the universal creative energy or spirit.

At least six thousand years old, Yoga was widespread from Egypt to India and beyond. 

The earliest archaeological evidence is from cities Harappa and Mohenjo Daro of the Indus Valley civilisation in 4000 BC.
