Addressing the invitees, Bantu Dismus, a wellness and fitness instructor said he had been healed of back and knee problems after joining Yoga classes.
"I kept on trying to go to the hospital to help myself but the problem kept on going. That's until I joined Yoga at Embakasi Central and my legs started functioning properly after a couple of classes," he said.
"It has now been a year, I am physically fit. I have also been able to balance my weight without going to the gym. As an instructor, Yoga is my source of income, it has always been my dream to earn from something I love. When you love doing something and you earn from it, it is like you are not working."
Esther Mercy, from Embakasi also gave her testimony, revealing that her life had been transformed, "I am 52 years old and I am flexible. I had been struggling with high blood pressure. I had frequent visits to the doctor because I couldn't walk a long distance. When I got introduced to Yoga, I am fit and I do not have the blood pressure anymore."
Yoga originated in ancient India. In September 2014, Indian Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi urged the world community to adopt an international day of Yoga.
In December of the same year, the United Nations General Assembly (Unga) approved the proposal to establish today as the intentional day of Yoga.
