I planned to organize my workshop on Yoga in the month of July2024 since this is the time when people like to involve in lot of activities. After taking feedback from people, I set the date for my workshop on July 13th 2024, from 3pm to 6pm at Royal Canadian Legion almost a month before it. The biggest challenge was that Yoga is a new concept in the community and so I wrote an article in the local newspaper Clinton Lariot to make people aware of this. I tried my best reaching out to various places and people to make them acquainted with this concept and workshop. My husband also helped me in my project as we both went to the office of local M.P. Frank Caputo at 100 miles house and personally invited them. We also went to village office of Clinton and invited them. My daughter Sanya Sarin was also involved in making beautiful posters as she is on summer break from her college. I also purchased projector and screen to make slides and videos to make it more impactful of which my daughter took charge of. We affixed the posters outside of grocery shops in Clinton. 70 miles, 100 miles, also at banks, health center. Almost 20-25 people attended the workshop, I got signed the media release from the participants. First some light was shedded on the concept of Yoga, physical exercises, breathing exercises, then videos, slide shows and quizzes and winners were given prizes, then vegan snacks with refreshments were served. I learnt that people enjoy new things but more people could not turn up because of fires in the surrounding. Workshop was both informative and fun filled, whoever participated, really enjoyed.
