Blessed Self, Hari Om!

Sanrakshika expresses heartfelt gratitude to Bihar School of Yoga for conducting five-day yoga sessions for our children at five CISF (Central Industrial Security Force) Units at ASG Mumbai, RTC Bhilai, RB Ghaziabad, NISA Hyderabad and LTC Neyveli in the months of May and June 2022.

The young instructors of the Bal Yoga Mitra Mandal (BYMM) and Yuva Yoga Mitra Mandal (YYMM) conducted engaging sessions where the children could whole-heartedly participate. The unique and simple method of teaching yoga adopted by BYMM and YYMM provided the children with the basics of yoga, which they could remember and easily follow. The instructors who conducted the sessions showed immense sincerity and their sense of service was inspiring to both adults and children present at the sessions.

The introduction to yoga through BSY has given these children a perspective of yoga as a tool which they can use in their day-to-day lives. The children gave interesting feedback on their experience of the camps. The entire experience of organizing and conducting these camps have been an opportunity to learn for all involved in the endeavour.

As expressed by the children we will be looking forward for more such opportunities in which children will be learning yoga from children.

Once again I express my gratitude on behalf of Sanrakshika to all BYMM and Y2M2 instructors and Bihar School of Yoga for this memorable exposure of yoga to CISF children.

With warm regards and best wishes.
