Yoga and music. On the Marina, in the park this morning.

MT YODA DAYThe Marina is always abuzz. Not just on weekends. And this morning its sidewalk and sands were stages for yoga enthusiasts.  To mark International Yoga Day, a few hundred practioners took their places on the sidewalk and went through a session of guided yoga practice, something they seem to have been at every morning.

Many were attired in stark green Tees; others in simple loose clothes for the occasion.

Morning walkers also joined the yoga groups to enlarge the community.

The skies remained a tad grey after the good spell of rain 48 hours ago and the gentle weather of Tuesday.

June 21 is also International Music Day and there are a few events to mark this milestone – one such was a unplugged concert at Nageswara Rao Park this morning.

Vocal and flute music from two artistes who sat on a  rug in a corner of the greens and performed without plugging into a audio system; letting the music float around the walkers who rarely miss their morning date here.
