In collaboration with the Vivekananda Cultural Centre (VCC), Embassy of India, Tokyo, we are holding an exclusive, members-only yoga event. This is a rare opportunity to learn authentic yoga and find yourself by connecting the mind, body, and spirit though breath. With the indoor light dimmed and the Japanese garden illuminated, beginners and advanced practitioners alike are invited to experience the wisdom of humanity handed down from ancient India.
This event will be conducted under COVID-19 preventive measures by limiting the number of participants in a large space with a maximum capacity of 160 people and by arranging yoga mats with proper social distancing. Please note that this event may have to be postponed or cancelled depending on future circumstances.
