“I am deeply honoured to be an ambassador for Yoga Gives Back. From the very beginning of Rainbow Yoga, our mission has been to spread love, connection, and healing through the practice of yoga, especially for children and families. When we empower the next generation with tools for emotional regulation, empathy, and resilience, we plant seeds for a more compassionate and peaceful world. Yoga Gives Back shares this vision, working tirelessly to uplift vulnerable communities through education and support. Together, we are building bridges between hearts, across cultures, and through generations.

“Each of us is like a small flame, offering warmth and hope in our own way. But when we join together, our light becomes a powerful beacon illuminating even the world’s darkest corners. This collaboration is a celebration of the power of unity and a reminder that collective action, rooted in love and purpose, can create real and lasting change. I truly believe that by working hand in hand, we can shape a future where every child has the chance to shine.

“Together, we will make the world a better place!”

 

Gopala has been working to make the world a better place since his teens, first through music, and then with yoga and meditation practice starting when he was 14. This continued with his inner work as a Hindu monk for 10 years with the Sivananda Ashrams.

Gopala has been teaching yoga for adults and kids since 1995, expanding the idea of inner peace for world peace when he opened the Yoga LeShalom (Yoga for Peace) centre in Tel Aviv. Since then he had a few yoga centres including The Rainbow Centre – A centre for social evolution.

Gopala created a revolution with Rainbow Yoga, making the practice social and interactive. Breaking the yoga mould and making the practice bigger than an individual one. He opened the way for a yoga that is transformative not only on an inner level, but also on social and global realms.

Gopala, with his beautiful family, are on a mission to spread concepts greater than yoga and inclusive of all beings. Love, community and connection are at the heart of Gopala’s intentions to create a social evolution that will bring more kindness to our interactions with all human and non-human animal friends.
