Yoga for the Children

Sri Pathanjali Yoga Sikshana Samithi (Regd) Karnataka, decided to start a FREE Yoga Program for the children between the ages of 12 and 18 years, in all their 325 centres, during the summer vacation. The program was inaugurated on 15th April 2009, immediately after the New Year of some States of India which was on the 14th April. The kids were too happy to get introduced to a new beginning of the New Year.

These are some of the photos from one of the centres. The inauguration program started with a prayer.





The main Yoga teacher addressed the program.














The chief guests gave a small lecture to the kids about yoga and its benefits. The kids listened to it with utmost attention and enthusiasm.



The inauguration of the program came to an end, with the distribution of prasadam. The kids got disbursed from the inauguration ceremony, with new spirit and enthusiasm to start a new beginning, and a better way to enjoy their vacation.



The yoga program for the kids will come to an end on the 6th May, and immediately after that the Samithi is planning to take them for a Yoga camp at Shiddarabetta (Tumkur District of Karnataka).
