Patanjali Yogpeeth – USA (PYP-US) Trust was established as a registered US charity in 2008. Its sister organisation, Divya Yoga, is an Indian charitable trust founded in 1995 by Swami Ramdev and Acharya Balkrishan. Like Divya Yoga, PYP-US Trust has many visionary aims and objectives, all focussed around one key aim: to make this world disease-free through a scientific approach to Yog and Ayurved.
PYP-US Trust is inspired by Swami Ramdev Ji who is one of the world’s leading, most popular, and a successful results-oriented yog master. He has become a household name in India owing to his ability to simplify yog techniques for the masses and validate the benefits of yog and pranayam (controlled breathing techniques) combined with aasans (physical exercises) that are part of the ancient Indian Vedic sciences.
Swami Ramdev Ji advocates the power of breath, through the practice of Pranayam, as a remedy for all ailments. He has sparked off a revolution by bringing about a divine transformation of body, mind and soul. Under his guidance, a large number of people have been alleviated from pain and suffering, thus leading healthier, more purposeful lives. Swami Ramdev’s spiritual yog teachings have been internationally celebrated through televised classes and live sessions. His following has rapidly grown from thousands to millions worldwide.
Since 2007 when Swami Ramdev Ji made his first visit to the USA, his international appeal has grown many fold: PYP-US Trust trained yog teachers are giving their time free of cost to raising health awareness in local communities by holding yog classes.


International Yoga Day 2020: A virtual Yoga Day celebration in Texas and other American states

Amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, this year’s theme is

 ‘Yoga at Home and Yoga with Family’.

Yoga plays a crucial role in promoting health in a holistic manner by improving physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health.
Yoga can be termed as a one-size-fits-all solution to fight stress and also alleviate other ailments including depression and anxiety.




Since June 21, 2015, the International Day of Yoga has been celebrated annually across the world, coinciding with the Summer Solstice each year. The practice of yoga originated from ancient India and has been promoted by several spiritual gurus over centuries. At the United Nations General Assembly in 2014, Prime Minister Narendra Modi proposed a day to practice and celebrate yoga which has since been recognised by the United Nations. In his address PM Modi said, “Yoga is an invaluable gift of India’s ancient tradition. It embodies unity of mind and body; thought and action; restraint and fulfillment; harmony between man and nature; a holistic approach to health and well-being. It is not about exercise but to discover the sense of oneness with yourself, the world and the nature. By changing our lifestyle and creating consciousness, it can help in well being. Let us work towards adopting an International Yoga Day.”

 Amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, this year’s theme is ‘Yoga at Home and Yoga with Family’.

Since 2015, people in Texas have been celebrating the Yoga Day in mass gatherings at sprawling parks, followed by throwing colour on another like in Holi and dancing to the tunes of popular Bollywood songs. However, this year due to the coronavirus pandemic and the restrictions on large public gatherings and the social distancing measures in place, the decision to take the celebrations to every home though the digital platform has been lauded by the yoga enthusiasts.
