A group yoga session in a tiled hall with a thatched roof. Children and a few adults in light clothing stretch with arms raised and bodies bent, some on red-and-white striped mats and blue mats. A tall young man in a beige kurta-style outfit stands at left-centre with arms overhead. Behind them, two banners hang: one shows a blue human silhouette with coloured chakras labelled Sahasrara chakra, Ajna chakra, Vishuddhi chakra, Anahata chakra, Manipura chakra and Svadhisthana chakra, titled Chakras Chari; the other reads New Method Works with a Memory listing. Colourful small plastic bins sit along the left wall, and a framed picture hangs at right.
