Yoga Day : Jaipuria School Hosts Inspiring Wellness Workshop

Lucknow : In celebration of International Yoga Day, Seth M.R. Jaipuria School, Goyal Campus, Lucknow, organized a rejuvenating and highly engaging yoga workshop that brought together over 200 participants including students, teachers, parents, and school staff. The session was held from 6:30 AM to 8:00 AM in the school grounds, fostering a shared spirit of health, mindfulness, and unity.

Led by experienced yoga trainers, the session guided participants through a variety of yoga asanas, pranayama (breathing exercises), and meditation techniques. From tree pose to cobra posture, and from mindful breathing to calming meditative moments, the workshop embraced the holistic essence of yoga. The participants enthusiastically followed the instructors, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and collective energy.

Present on the occasion were Goyal Group of Institutions Chairman Mr. Mahesh Agrawal and School Principal Dr. Reena Pathak, who not only participated in the yoga exercises but also addressed the gathering. Mr. Agrawal highlighted the importance of integrating yoga into our daily routine, emphasizing its lifelong benefits for both physical and mental health. Dr. Pathak echoed the same sentiment, urging students and parents to adopt yoga as a part of everyday living.

“Our goal is to cultivate awareness about ancient Indian wellness practices among the young generation. Yoga is not just about flexibility but also inner balance, self-discipline, and clarity of thought,” said Dr. Pathak in her address.

Adding a creative dimension to the celebration, the school also organized multiple student-centric competitions including a poster-making contest, an essay writing challenge, and a yoga-themed quiz. These events offered students an opportunity to explore the philosophical, cultural, and scientific significance of yoga beyond the physical practice.

Further enriching the day’s educational scope, both students and teachers actively participated in a national-level online quiz hosted on mygov.com, an initiative by the Ministry of AYUSH. Their enthusiastic involvement led to the acquisition of a significant number of e-certificates, underscoring the school’s commitment to active learning and participation in government wellness initiatives.

The event concluded with the distribution of participation certificates and a collective pledge to incorporate yoga as a daily lifestyle practice. The success of the workshop was a result of coordinated planning and the spirited involvement of the school’s faculty, administrative team, and students.

Through this initiative, Jaipuria School once again demonstrated its dedication to holistic education—one that balances academics with physical well-being and emotional mindfulness. The International Yoga Day celebration served not only as a morning of exercise but as a transformative experience for all involved.
