Congress in Zinal 2025

Zinal, a charismatic mountain village in the Val de Zinal - the peaceful valley in Swiss Alps, providing ideal conditions for practicing yoga. It is a highlight of a year for me. Undisturbed by “the noisy World”, I am able to dive in the practice and deepen my experience. High concentration of unique teachers and exceptionally knowledgeable scholars offers an inspiration, answers to questions and navigation tools aiding to identify right directions on your path

Every time we have come to Zinal since 2011, we have had moments of grace and shared gifts, whether in the workshops and conferences generously offered by the speakers, or during the convivial evenings during which the participants gather for music, to dance together or to discover the federations that make the European Union of Yoga come alive.

Congress in Zinal is not only an event to do yoga, but it is also a possibility to experience the history of yoga in Europe, the only place outside of India.

The best yoga experience! Full of love, light, kindness and sunshine in the heart. And of course EXCELLENT yoga classes. Thanks you BYC yoga! I will come back next year for SURE/

„Jocelyn et moi avons participé au congrès de l’UEY à Zinal depuis l’année 2000. Nous avons été émerveillés par ce lieu magique et la qualité des prestations données par les intervenants de tous pays avec un invité d’honneur différent chaque année.

C’est un lieu convivial, ressourçant, de méditation et où on fait de superbes  rencontres. Chaque année, c’est différent et toujours aussi  riche. Nous avons même convié des élèves à découvrir ce congrès. Ils en ont gardé un souvenir mémorable. Merci aux organisateurs !

En 23 ans nous avons manqué 3 saisons.

Fin août, tout  Zinal est à l’heure du yoga ! Merci à Gérard BLITZ !“

EUY annual events in Zinal,is for me as the sweetest candy I can give myself. Both, as a yoga teacher who appreciates that all of us are there, sharing the ancient brilliant knowledge, from all different schools and also as a nature fan that gets the location's experience through all my senses. What a gift we created to ourselves, having shared this Zinal week for 50 years now. Hope to meet u there, Iris, Israel (celebrating 18th times in EUY Zinal events, but who counts)
