Yoga enthusiasts came together and held a practical session right on the coast of the Caspian Sea in the Avaza National Tourist Zone, on International Yoga Day that is celebrated annually on June 21, as reported turkmenistan.gov.tm.
An experienced yoga instructor from Balkanabat, Myahri Gulmamedova, who has been actively practicing yoga for five years and has completed coaching training, led the session. She noted the growing popularity of yoga in the region.
– Last year, a yoga master class, organized by the Embassy of India in Turkmenistan, was held at the indoor water park. And today, it can be said that yoga classes are becoming increasingly popular in our city. We practice both indoors and outdoors – in the mountains and by the sea. Our region is rich in picturesque places, and we gladly use them for training.
In Turkmenistan, great attention is paid to a healthy lifestyle. Large-scale sports events such as runs, cycling races, and other activities promoting sports among youth are regularly held. Sports centers across the country have yoga sections and studios where anyone can join the classes.
