Maître Yoga: Exhibition at UNESCO (Paris)
Maître Yoga is a playful, immersive and educational exhibit designed to guide you toward discovering your yogic potential, whether you’re a neophyte or already familiar with the practice. Over three spaces covering more than 800m2, you’ll experience yoga’s history, philosophy, its aims and trends and come away better able to answer these questions for yourself: What is yoga? What is it for? How can it support me?
The show is accompanied by yoga and meditation workshops for adults and children, roundtables on the role yoga can play in athletics as well as in leadership, meditation sessions with AI… the week will culminate in a musical, meditative evening on June 21st (add that to the list of our recommended things to do!)
