A large hall with white-cloth chairs and round tables along the sides. Dozens of shirtless men in dark shorts or trousers are performing a yoga pose on beige mats across the glossy white floor, hands and knees down, bodies low and forward.

Red and gold drapes, framed pictures and a screen hang on the walls, and a figure in orange robes stands near a red-and-gold seat at the far left, distant and partly visible.
