A wide photograph of an open stone-paved courtyard at an ashram, with many blue mats laid out in rows. Dozens of people in orange clothing are performing Shivasthamba Yoga (mallakhamba pole yoga) on vertical wooden poles and on the mats, some hanging and balancing. Two people sit in the lower left near a blue mat, and a row of blue equipment cases stands in the foreground beside a black stage speaker stack and a small table. Ornate golden pavilion structures, trees and low ashram buildings frame the background under a cloudy sky.
