Singapore Yoga Sports Federation

Largest Nonprofit Organisation representing the yoga community in Singapore through integrity and diversity of yoga.

Yoga is the best art and science of life, mankind ever had in the history. Yoga has a significant role to play in the healthy growth of body and mind especially in this age of mounting stress and strain. Because of its manifold benefits, yoga is gaining world wide recognition. But to give impetus to any programme, some platform is required. Therefore, for the preservation and expansion of yoga, the great ancient culture, art and indigenous gift of civilisation, an organization was required to be constituted at National Level of Singapore. In view to the realization of that aim, Singapore Yoga Federation (SYF) came into existence. Singapore Yoga Federation (SYF) started working organising educational and promotional activities in 2006 and officially governed its congress in 2013.
