Centre for Yoga Training and Research
Ethics Charter
The Centre bases its work on six commitments: research and tradition, otherness, respect for all living beings, responsibility, co-creation and vocation. Rooted in traditional transmission and scientific research, these principles guide our professional training courses, our academic work and our weekly classes. We are committed to constant quality, ethics and continuous improvement.
Research, Tradition & Authenticity
We believe modern yoga practice should be informed by the serious study of its textual sources.
In researchWe work closely with Dr Gharote and the Lonavla Yoga Institute, supporting their work to preserve yoga’s heritage through the translation, editing and publication of ancient manuscripts.
In training and classesWe pass on the fruits of this research to our students, offering teaching that is historically grounded and driven by transmission rather than commercial drift.
Otherness & Inclusion
Every individual is unique. Our richness comes from the diversity of our paths, bodies and minds.
In trainingWe adapt our teaching to value the individuality of each future teacher.
In weekly classesWe welcome every student without judgement, whatever their level, age or physical condition, adapting the practice to their needs.
Respect for all living beings
Human beings are an integral part of nature. We cultivate a harmonious relationship with others and with our environment.
In training and researchWe pass on a philosophy of yoga that respects all forms of life, inspired by the ethics of the traditional texts.
In weekly classesWe create a safe space, physically and emotionally, that honours each person’s physical limits and rhythm.
Responsibility & Ethics
Teaching and studying yoga requires a keen awareness of our social impact.
In training and researchWe honour the trust of our international partners by carrying out our work with scientific rigour, and we prepare future teachers with integrity.
In weekly classesWe are committed to providing safe supervision, strict confidentiality and a professional stance that rejects any abuse of influence.
Co-creation & Sharing
Learning and research are collaborative, living processes.
In training and researchWe build a cultural and intellectual bridge between India and Switzerland, notably through Dr Gharote’s lectures and workshops, encouraging dialogue between experts, trainers and students.
In weekly classesWe foster an atmosphere of mutual support and listening between teacher and practitioners.
Vocation & Transmission
Yoga is a path of personal, collective and intellectual fulfilment.
In trainingWe inspire students to fully embody their future role as guides, nourished by ancient texts while deeply respecting their own beliefs and culture.
In weekly classesWe guide students towards a better connection with themselves, giving meaning and depth to each practice, in tolerance and kindness.
