A large tented yoga session with participants on striped mats. A man in an orange-red saffron wrap and long dark hair stands barefoot at the centre of a central walkway, appearing to lead the session; he is a probable Swamiji candidate by his saffron clothing and long hair. Around him, many participants in black and red athletic clothes bend forward, arch backward or raise their arms overhead. Colourful paper tassels and lanterns hang from the white tent roof, and a red and orange striped runner lines the floor.
