A large hall with a glossy white tiled floor and hanging ceiling lamps is filled with about forty bare-chested men performing a deep forward-bending yoga posture on tan mats. Most wear dark trousers or white dhotis, with heads lowered and hands on the floor. A wall at the back shows a seated figure with a red and gold backdrop, and colourful cylindrical banners hang from the ceiling. A tripod stands in the foreground. The scene shows a group yoga practice in an ashram hall.
