Nothing like seeing the youngsters taking an interest in Yoga.
International Yoga day was celebrated last Wednesday and the
participants were a mix of the elderly and young ones.
For those who could not sit on the floor, special chairs were
provided.
Stretching is one of those basic body movements that we forget
to do on a daily basis.
And the same goes for twisting. With proper guidance from the instructors, practically all could do it well.
Some exercises work well with the help of a partner. While
performing there is also a sense of “helping each other”
While doing the “vrikshasan” alone, your raised palm goes only up to the top of your head, whereas while doing it with a partner your palm moves further by which there is a good stretch on the side ribs.
The eye exercise is very relevant especially in the present
era of computer screens
I captured the complete program in a video of 16 minutes, but had to break it up in parts to send it across in 1.5 min capsules through WhatsApp. (the latest mode of communication for all)
On the whole a good experience. My recommendation - make Yoga a daily habit.

Love yoga and hate to miss a class..gives mea feeling of missing something. .doctors say yoga has helped me recover from my surgeries.. hence want to do a lot of yoga and thank Rashmi.Norein and Avni for being such excellent teachers and so patient and guiding us well..A big THANK YOU.
How nice to see people of all ages practicing Yoga! It is known to be very therapeutic, both for mental and physical health.
Loved to see young and old together doing YOGA. Wish I could have been a part of the session. Now it is essential to have YOGA atleast twice a week. May Allah give good health to all of us in India. Best luck.
It is so true: we forget to stretch, don't we? Then, we wonder why we are so stiff every morning. Thanks for the mini yoga lesson!

Your pictures are a wonderful display of yoga exercises. Yoga is for all ages, genders and bodies. It helps create harmony and balance between body, mind, soul - hence its great importance as a way of life.
I got an injury and the doctor told me, no Yoga, but I ignored him and my wonderful instructor gave me movements to suit my condition. I am so glad I continued.
Love this post. very inspiring.
Agree...yoga is really good. I have done it on and off due to time constraints
Inspiring pics

I've never tried yoga but it's never too late I guess. Thank you for the inspiration!

Very nice post. As always, the pictures are beautiful.
Dear Joe,
Thanks a lot! Really inspiring. Our modern living has minimized our body movement and stretching. To keep oneself fit, Yoga will surely help.
