A large hall with colourful paper banners hanging from the ceiling, where a yoga session is in progress. A central figure in an orange-red robe and a long-sleeved wrap, with long dark hair and a beard, walks barefoot along an aisle of striped mats while carrying a long staff. Participants on both sides stand with palms pressed together in anjali, others kneel or sit cross-legged, and a man in a blue top with grey shorts also joins his hands. Several women in black and yellow-orange clothing stand nearby, and one person bows low on a mat in the foreground. Water bottles and small cups are placed beside the mats.
