Indian diplomat Raj Aggarwal called for yoga sessions to be introduced in Welsh schools at the International Yoga Day celebrations in Cardiff. He was joined by hundreds of yoga lovers at a special masterclass. The yoga day celebrations were held at Ty Krishna Cymru in Cardiff. There were free yoga sessions for people of all abilities, from beginners to veteran yogis by various yoga practitioners. The event was open to all members of the public for free and classes were given by yoga expert Meni Farkash and the current Miss Wales Gabriella Jukes attended one of the classes.

The event was arranged by the Honorary Consul of India for Wales, Raj Aggarwal OBE. Speaking about his support for the event, Aggarwal said: “I am pleased to take part in this global event to celebrate the 5000-year-old practice of yoga, which originated in India. Yoga is not only a great way for people to keep fit and healthy, it also helps focus the mind and allows people to relax and unwind from the stresses and strains of modern life.
