Overview
Join Nelson teachers to celebrate International Yoga Day!
Since 2014, all over the world, June 21st has been celebrated as International Yoga Day. International Yoga Day aims to spread the awareness of the many benefits of yoga and today it is more important than ever that the health and wellness of individuals, communities and our planet is nurtured. With the theme for 2021 being “Yoga at home and Yoga with Family” considering the current climate internationally, we are so privileged in Nelson, NZ to be able to meet in person. On Sunday 20th June, Nelson Yoga teachers are collaborating to share a range of classes and mini-workshops throughout the day with the wider community. Sessions are open to all and provide a great way to get a taste of what yoga, meditation and breathwork practices can offer (see schedule below). There is even a class for the whole family to join in – really embracing this year’s theme!
All sessions are free to attend.
This day is in collaboration with the High Commission of India.
