A seated teacher in red and gold robes sits on an ornate golden throne-style chair at the far end of a raised stage, with a camera on a tripod in front and a microphone stand nearby. Behind the stage hangs a dark blue curtain with a green banner reading "Yoga Sutras" and orange tasselled hangings above. Rows of seated attendees, mostly in white clothes, face the stage on the floor, some on red mats, with a woman in an orange top at right and bottles and bags scattered around. The polished floor reflects the throne and banner.
