Indoor hall stage at a Nithya Yoga teachers training session. A white banner with a pink lotus and the words "nithya yoga" stands on an easel at left, beside a brass lamp and a garlanded object. On a white-draped seat, a person in orange robes speaks into a microphone. Audience members sit on red mats with yellow blocks, including a woman in white and yellow, a person in orange, and a man in white with a yellow-orange shawl in the foreground. Dark curtains, a hanging yellow lamp and striped fabric banners frame the stage. A banner beside the stage is partly visible. The orange-robed speaker shows a long-haired appearance and is a plausible candidate for the teacher, but the face and clothing cues are not distinctive enough to confirm identity.
