International Yoga Day 2026: NSS Volunteers lead yoga session at Friends of Jesus Bhavanam

As part of the International Yoga Day celebrations, 15 NSS volunteers from Vidya Academy of Science and Technology visited Friends of Jesus Bhavanam, Gagultha on 21 June 2026. The outreach program aimed to share the essence of holistic health with the inmates, featuring a session led by NSS volunteer Aruna R. Menon, who demonstrated various yoga postures and breathing exercises.

Around 30 inmates enthusiastically participated in the session, creating a lively and meaningful experience for everyone present. Under the meticulous leadership of NSS Volunteer Secretaries-Pavithra M. G. (S5, CSE Dept), Midhun Das K. (S5, CE Dept), Prakeerthana Baiju (S5, AIML Dept) and Muhammed Bilal A. A. (S5, EEE Dept)—the team effectively handled rehearsals, logistics, and on-ground coordination.

The guidance, presence and motivation of Mr. Ranjith E. R (NSS Program Officer, Asst Prof, ME Dept) and Ms. Delmy David V (NSS Program Officer, Asst Prof, CSE Dept) played a vital role in boosting volunteer morale and ensuring the event’s success.
