A Day of Celebration

Throughout its long history, yoga has inspired and changed the lives of millions and continues to bring people together from across the globe. It is our universal language which has taught us gratitude, love, mindfulness and so many other values. We honor the principles and all the lessons yoga has given us as we celebrate this year’s International Day of Yoga.

About International Day of Yoga 

Today, yoga is practiced in various styles worldwide and continues to grow in popularity. It is estimated that there are currently 300 million yoga practitioners across the globe. International Day of Yoga is a special day which unites our entire yoga community.

On December 11, 2014, the United Nations pronounced June 21 as the International Day of Yoga to raise global awareness of all the benefits and gifts that a yoga practice has to offer.

Ways to Celebrate

For this year’s event, reflect on all the reasons why you love yoga and all the ways it has made you grow in your own life. Here are a few other ways that you can celebrate.

Channel your inner yogi and make an extra effort with your practice. Fully relax into each posture and dedicate some time for meditation. Do some volunteer work or help out a friend in need.

Take one or two of your favorite yoga classes. Even if you don’t have a lot of time to celebrate, taking a class is a great way to reflect on the day. Our full schedule of classes will allow you to pick the style of yoga you want at a time that works conveniently with your schedule.
