GD Goenka Public School, Lucknow organized a 7-day virtual yoga session for the students from 15 June to 21 June, 2021. The parents were also encouraged and they participated with great enthusiasm. A week plan was given to teachers to celebrate Yoga Day which included different types of exercises to enhance their balancing of body; also different breathing techniques were practised by children.
Every year, the Goenkan fraternity observes a celebration leading up to the main event to promote yoga. This year also despite the pandemic, we took the opportunity to propagate the need to practice yoga at home as a family. Emphasis was laid on the general and post-covid importance of yoga. Students were asked to follow the instructions given in the link and perform the following asanas; Vajrasana, Ardha Ushtrasana, Shashankasana, Vajrasana, Bhujangasana, Shalabhasana, Setubandhasana and Pavanamuktasana. Other activities like Sitli pranayama, Ujaiyii pranayama, Bhramairi pranayama, Kapalbhati pranayam etc.
On June 21, a live yoga session was organised for all students, parents and teachers from 8:15 to 9:00 am. This marked the culmination of the International Yoga Day. It was a wonderful session wherein students were seen performing the yoga asanas along with their families. It was a refreshing time of performing exercises as the Goenkan fraternity. Even though the day and the celebration has ended, the students left with a promise that they would make exercising a regular feature of their daily
routine.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”9204″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”9202″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”9203″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”9212″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”9211″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”9210″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”9209″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”9208″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”9207″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”9205″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”9206″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”9201″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
