A large seated audience of hundreds fills a hall during a yoga session. Most participants sit cross-legged on colourful striped mats, many in black tops and black pants, some in grey or white. Several women clap with palms together, and many wear pendant necklaces and bangles. In the background a large red velvet throne with white-and-gold trim stands on a decorated dais, and a partially visible figure in white and orange appears near the top right, though the throne is unoccupied in view. Foreground women look toward the front; a woman in a grey top sits at left and an older woman with glasses and an orange scarf sits in front. Ornate stained-glass windows and draped white fabric decorate the hall.
