A large bright hall with cream walls and red curtains where a yoga morning session is underway. Many people sit cross-legged on mats, most with eyes closed and hands in anjali mudra at chest height. In the foreground a man in orange kurta and orange dhoti sits on a black mat with palms pressed together, and beside him another in orange sits on a red mat. Others wear white kurtas and white dhotis, and some sit bare-chested in white vests. Small silver dumbbells rest on the floor between mats. Framed portraits hang on the walls and a stack of folded mats sits near the back. No individual can be identified as a person from the visible appearance, so the figures are described by their clothing and role as practitioners.
