A photograph of a Nithya Yoga teachers training session held in a large hall with a tented ceiling and red, yellow and blue floor mats. A figure in an orange robe sits on a white-draped seat on a low platform in front of a decorated deity murti with garlands, a brass lamp beside it. A white banner reads "nithya yoga" with a pink lotus logo on an easel to the left, and a tall poster stands behind the seated group. About ten participants in white and cream clothing and orange shawls sit cross-legged on the mats facing the platform, several with long hair in braids. Handwritten notes and papers lie on the mats in front.
