About Raja Yoga and Meditation Center of Greater Philadelphia:
Raja is a “non-profit, down to earth, cozy, neighborhood studio” at 724 S 20th St. Raja Yoga translates to “the royal path” and refers to the 8 training steps of personal evolution described in the Yoga Sutras. Raja offers an easy space to get to know the holistic benefits of yoga and meditation.
They have been noted for their work in West Philadelphia schools, by CBS Philly on a program that integrates yoga instructors to teach meditation during the school week. Doing so creates access for those to learn important techniques within communities that need it the most. They raise funds to hire teachers to be present in Philadelphia public schools.
