Congresses
The Satsangas are the maximum exponent of the spirit of the FEYS, places of meeting and communion with the deep wisdom of Yoga. Besides organizing the Satsangas, the FEYS participates in Iberian, European and World congresses.

YOGA BIENNIALS. SATSANGAS OF THE FEYS
Since 2004, when the Spanish Yoga Federation was constituted in the first Satsanga (a congress organized in Jaca, Spain), the FEYS organizes a biannual Yoga Biennial, congresses that we call Satsangas. In these Satsangas we try to offer a varied range of presentations, workshops and conferences that express our motto: Unity in Diversity.
INTERNATIONAL FIELD
The FEYS participates in a globalizing and unifying movement at the international level. Starting from a confederation of schools in the Iberian Peninsula, this initiative has spread firstly at a European level and later on at a world level.
Thus, the FEYS is part of the Iberian Yoga Confederation. It is a founding member of the European Yoga Confederation, created in 2014 by the initiative of the Portuguese master Jagat Guru Amrta Súryánanda Mahá Rája, with the support of the Iberian Yoga Confederation.
In the last European Yoga Congress, held at UNESCO headquarters in Paris (France) last May 2018, the European Yoga Confederation promoted the foundation of a International Yoga Confederation, whose first meeting will be held soon, with a date not yet set.
This globalizing movement aims that more and more people on Earth practice Yoga, with the firm confidence that Yoga is the way of Peace, Light and Love. For that, the congresses of those confederations intend to have repercussions not only in Yoga practitioners, but also in governors, political and religious leaders, institutions and citizens so that Yoga is recognized worldwide.
One of the greatest successes of this active movement was the declaration of Yoga in 2016 as Intangible Cultural Heritage, and of the 21st of June as the International Day of Yoga.
Representatives of the FEYS have been present in the editions of the European and Iberian Yoga Meetings, participating with workshops and conferences on behalf of the Federation.
IBERIAN MEETINGS
The "Iberian Yoga Meeting" EIBERYO was born in Portugal by the hand of Master Amrta Suryananda, who in 2007 convened for the first time in Cartagena (Spain) to various schools of Yoga in the Iberian Peninsula, with the aim of creating a meeting point and exchange of experiences and knowledge that would enrich us all.
The FEYS became part of this Iberian Confederation during the 7th edition of its congress, in 2013 in Brihuega (Guadalajara, Spain).
