The Satyananda Yoga Foundation of Hungary was established in 2003 as a non-profit charitable organization dedicated to propagating the teachings of Satyananda Yoga and making them available to all members of society.

SYFH offers weekly yoga classes and conducts retreats, seminars and conferences throughout the year. Additional activities include translation and publication of books and a monthly electronic newsletter. The Foundation also organizes an annual journey to the Ashram headquarters, Bihar School of Yoga, in India, which provides an opportunity to experience and imbibe the principles of yogic lifestyle and education in the presence of the spiritual masters, Paramahamsa Satyananda and Swami Niranjanananda.

In 2006 the Foundation started to implement one of its most important goals; establishing the first residential yoga center in Hungary, in the village of Szolad, in Somogy county.

The organization places emphasis on the importance of love, compassion, and selfless service and, since its inception, the Satyananda Yoga Foundation Hungary has been active in helping disadvantaged members of society such as the homeless, disabled and the poor.
