Celebrated on June 21, International Yoga Day celebrates the physical and spiritual prowess that yoga has brought to the world stage. The date of June 21 was chosen as it is the Summer Solstice, a suitable occasion to engage in the ancient practice of completing 108 sun salutations with the season change.

Continuing with this tradition we inaugurated at IE in March 2022 to welcome the spring, we are inviting all our IE Community members (plus friends and family), from seasoned to beginner yogis, to join us for this 2nd edition to welcome the summer as well as change and new energy!

The 108 sun salutations are usually done as a spiritual practice at special times such as transition between seasons, spring/summer or fall/winter, full and new moons. Why 108? The number 108 is considered to be a very spiritual and sacred number in the Hindu religion and is the number of names given to God Shiva. The approximate distance between the Earth and the Sun is 108 times the diameter of the Sun. 

Important information:
  • Please bring your own mat. We will have some extra ones, but not for everyone!
  • Friends and family are welcome to register and join! (Registration required)
  • ALL Levels Welcome!
This event is brought to you by the IE Athletic Center, the IE Center for Health, Well-Being & Happiness and 3Metros.

Cécile Ricard

Cecile is a French yogi who started her practice more than 10 years ago. She is a teacher who trained in India and the United States in Hatha Yoga, Vinyasa Flow, Power yoga, Yin and Yoga for pregnant women. Her classes are comprehensive, dynamic and creative, focusing on the breath that runs like a unifying thread throughout the class to purify, cleanse and balance the energy centers of the subtle body.

Cecile invites us to cultivate the presence on the mat to be able to connect with oneself on a daily basis at the deepest level, creating space in the body and mind. Learning to flow through yoga is learning to flow with Life.
