Philosophy and Principles
Surya Bali Gong Spirit Yoga School - Argyroupoli, Attica

At Surya Bali Gong Spirit Yoga School, yoga is not an exercise for the body, but a path back to ourselves. It is the art of living with awareness, balance and presence.

Our school is based on a deeply human-centered and free philosophy, open to everyone regardless of age, gender, experience or religious beliefs. The yoga we teach is not related to any religious doctrine – it is a universal tool for self-knowledge, healing and empowerment.

We believe that:

• Man is a spirit that resides in the body and our practice aims to restore this connection.
• Breathing is the key to balancing the nervous system, regulating emotions and clarity of mind.
• Discipline is freedom. When cultivated with love, it brings stability and self-respect.
• Inner silence and observation lead to a deeper understanding of who we really are.
• Connecting with nature is not a luxury — it is a return to our true being.
• Movement becomes prayer, and the body a tool for self-healing.

Yoga does not promise to change us. It simply returns us to who we already are — peaceful, whole, present.

We follow the natural wisdom of the body and the human heart. We do not teach techniques of distance, but tools of connection — with oneself, others, and the Whole.

At Surya Bali you will not “learn yoga.” You will live it.
