Rubber Yoga Mat

People from suburbs all around Cape Town attended with their children, doing the downward dog and warrior poses. Yoga teachers came with entire classes, and curious tourists came to help make history in Africa.

The Biggest Yoga Class in Africa was recently held in Cape Town where 689 people gathered in ominous weather to show unity through yoga. The event was held at the Art of Living Festival in Maynardville Park.

The class brought together the unity that the Art of Living teaches. The Art of Living Foundation is a non-profit, educational, charitable and humanitarian organisation that operates in 151 countries with 3 000 centres on the world. It is dedicated to serving and uplifting society through various powerful techniques, programmes and initiatives.
Copenhagen goodwill ambassador Laura Lykkegaard Selander said, “My family had a fantastic time, I hope you do it again!”
Halfway through the class the heavens opened, sending people scrambling for cover. Less than 50 die hard yogis carried on to the end of the class including the event planner, Nicky Felbert-Lazarus, who said, “We felt like we were cleansed inside and out!”
Nicky promises to host another mega yoga class all over again in the sunshine
