If we already have various reasons to enjoy yoga throughout the year, the arrival of International Yoga Day It is no less important, and it makes us celebrate and practice in a much more special way.

Celebrated annually on June 21st, this day intentionally coincides with the summer solstice, which marks the longest day of the year, when the sun reaches its highest point in the sky. This day represents gratitude and peace and is celebrated in community with yoga and wellness activities, directing all energy towards the sun.

Traditionally, 108 are practiced on this day Surya Namaskar (Sun salutations) as an offering to the Sun or the god Surya.

A CLASS WITH XUAN LAN

After celebrating with our yoga community in Madrid, we went to Barcelona to enjoy a session led by our ambassador Xuan Lan.

We organized a class in the garden of the Hotel Arts Barcelona: the afternoon sun was shining, the sea breeze was blowing as the sun was setting, "Follow the sun" and other songs were playing that helped us flow with the practice.

Until the next International Yoga Day!
