Philosophy

SYS is dedicated to offering an authentic, effective yoga experience encompassing asana (postures), breath technique (pranayama), and meditation. Our philosophy is that yoga can be a powerfully positive influence in a person's life, supporting an individual's greatest wellbeing and personal evolution in body, mind, energy, heart, and spirit.

We created the SYS Signature Class Flow for a unique, enriching yoga practice that offers inspiration and enlightenment as well as the physical elements of conditioning, flexibility, and strength.

Classes at SYS are guided by an unprecedented team of yoga talent. The SYS Board of Directors brings knowledge and expertise acquired through decades of study and practice in yoga and meditation. Collectively, they lead the skilled group of SYS teachers, which is comprised of the finest yoga instructors from Westchester, NYC, and Southern Connecticut.

An important philosophy of SYS is providing a proper introduction to yoga. That means attending to every detail of a beginning practice, from a Yoga Consultation to our SYS Foundations Series, because we believe that each student deserves to have a positive and effective initial experience with yoga. The Yoga Consultation serves to identify individual needs and reasons for practicing yoga, and will generate recommendations on which classes or teachers are the best fit. The SYS Foundations Series is designed for experiential education on the fundamentals of yoga so a beginning student is able to safely and successfully start their yoga practice.
