The Power of Posture

Bengaluru’s yoga community has a host of events planned to celebrate International Yoga Day

The Power of Posture

Zia Fariya, once a web designer, now dedicates her life to teaching yoga. She attributes yoga's healing power to the harmony of mind, body, and breath. Every year on International Yoga Day, Fariya introduces fresh techniques to her classes at Vesoma Fitness in North Bengaluru. This year, one such technique is the Tibetan healing bowl meditation.

This novel method involves music produced by the bowls, which amplifies the meditation's intensity and potency. It has yet to be experienced in India, and Fariya aims to provide an unprecedented session.

Additionally, the city is set to welcome Tao Porchon Lynch, who holds the Guinness World Record for being the world's oldest yoga teacher at 98 years old. Lynch will lead a four-day workshop at Shangri-La Hotel, from June 22 to 25, from 7 a.m. The workshop consists of two 90-minute sessions each day, split into 60 minutes of yoga and 30 minutes of interactive activities.
