A woman in a white embroidered kurta and pink patterned trousers sits on a striped mat in a yoga session, twisting her torso with one arm raised and the other hand resting near her foot. She wears wire-rimmed glasses and has a short dark bob, with a small orange-red bead on a cord at her neck. Behind her, several participants in green and teal salwar kameez and green clothing sit or bend on colourful striped mats across a red floor.

A photograph of a large group yoga session in a hall with red-cushioned chairs and red-and-white striped mats. Many participants sit cross-legged or on mats, mostly in white and pastel clothing, with lanyards around their necks, and many raise arms and rest hands on their heads and faces in a breathing or stretching exercise. In the background stand a red curtain, a yellow pillar, a shelf with small deity murti, and folded orange and white cloths. No presenter is clearly identifiable as a person standing at the front; the foreground shows blurred movement of raised arms.
