Join us on Sunday, 12.06 at the celebration of International Yoga Day, which will be held, now traditionally, on Lokrum.

International Yoga Day is celebrated around the world, and Croatia is one of 177 countries participating in this event.

This year's celebration will be dedicated to the idea that a joint gathering with the intention of uniting in peace and love can contribute to reducing tensions and establishing peace throughout the world, and especially in Ukraine.

This is an opportunity to invite all of you to help care for those affected by the war by paying a donation, in accordance with your possibilities.

Departure by boat at 9.30 am from the city port is organized.

The program of the event will be led by teachers from the association Ambient Croatia, Okey yoga, We DU Yoga, Elixir Vitae studio and teachers from the TM centre and the association The Art of Living. We expect that the celebration will be enhanced by the arrival of the Ambassador of India to the Republic of Croatia.

Everyone is welcome, old and young. No previous experience in yoga practice is required to participate.

Bring an exercise mat or a large beach towel.
