International Day of Yoga 2021 - Join Us

Yoga is an ancient physical, mental and spiritual practice that originated in India. The word ‘yoga’ derives from Sanskrit and means to join or to unite, symbolizing the union of body and consciousness. Today it is practiced in various forms around the world and continues to grow in popularity. Recognizing its universal appeal, on 11 December 2014, the United Nations proclaimed 21 June as International Day of Yoga (IDY). June 21, which is the Summer Solstice, is the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere and has special significance in many parts of the world. IDY aims to raise awareness worldwide of the many benefits of practicing yoga. IDY 2021 is the 7th edition of the International Day of Yoga. PES University celebrates IDY every year and this year, on the 21st June 2021, we are graced with the presence of our esteemed Chancellor, Dr. MR Doreswamy who will be the Chief Guest, and our Guest of Honour, Sri Rajesh Kumar, a certified and trained yoga teacher and evaluator from the Ministry of Ayush, Govt. of India and also Founder-Director of Shankara Ashtanga Yoga (SAY).
