At Amana Institute our goal is to provide you with the
tools to gain optimum health and well-being. Our mind/body programs bring balance, happiness and fulfillment.

Through the ancient practice of Yoga, you activate your own
inner healer and develop balance, flexibility and strength. We offer both classical and modern styles of Yoga at levels that are suitable for both beginner and advanced students.

Our meditation program (Primordial Sound Meditation) is a tool for rediscovering our body's inner intelligence. Practiced for thousands of years, it is not about forcing the mind to be quiet, but instead finding the silence that is already there and making it a part of your life. When we meditate on a regular basis, our minds and bodies begin to function with maximum effectiveness, creating health, vitality and happiness.

Come and explore this universal path of self-discovery and
optimum health and let us know how to best serve you.
