The presentation was interactive, with students asking questions. Following this, the same student led a live demonstration of basic yoga poses such as Mountain Pose (Tadasana), Warrior Pose (Virabhadrasana), Tree Pose (Vrikshasana) explaining correct alignment and breathing techniques. Students were encouraged to ask questions and clarify doubts during the demonstration.

The activity had a positive impact on the students, as it not only enhanced their understanding of the benefits of yoga but also engaged them in a practical, hands-on experience. The interactive presentation allowed students to actively participate and clarify any doubts, fostering a deeper connection to the topic. The live demonstration helped them grasp the correct postures and breathing techniques, making the practice more accessible and meaningful.
