As part of ÉLAN, our school’s holistic wellness initiative, a yoga session was thoughtfully organised for our support staff in observance of International Day of Yoga, recognising the invaluable contribution they make to the smooth functioning of the school each day. The session was dedicated to creating a moment of pause, relaxation, and self-care for those whose efforts often remain behind the scenes.
The trainer guided participants through a carefully sequenced practice of standing, seated, and restorative asanas. Conducted at a gentle and mindful pace, the session encouraged participants to unwind, reconnect with themselves, and experience a sense of calm amidst the demands of their daily responsibilities. The IAYP student volunteers extended enthusiastic support in coordinating the programme, embodying the spirit of service and empathy that lies at the heart of ÉLAN.
The positive response from the participants was both heartening and affirming. Many shared that they left the session feeling lighter, more peaceful, and physically refreshed—a simple yet meaningful reminder of the restorative power of mindful movement.
