Women seated on a patterned mat in a temple-style hall wearing white saris with orange-and-gold bordered shawls and rudraksha malas. The woman in the centre, with a red bindi, rests a small grey stone block against her head with one hand while writing in a notebook with a pen. To the left, an older woman with a lanyard holds a pen and paper and sits with eyes closed. At the far right, another woman in a cream sari with an orange shawl writes on paper with a yellow pen. Behind them, a man in white clothing sits near gold-decorated furniture and a woman in a blue and pink sari is visible. Several people appear, and the scene suggests a guided exercise session.
