Patrons partake in Zumba and Yoga routine in Undri

Pune: At the Happy Streets held at the serene Corinthians Club on Sunday, patrons unwinded to the Zumba and Yoga routine for the near-three hours of the event.

On the main stage, dancers from Bollybeats and Core Zumba, as well as the trainer Rahil Chowhan, took turns to lead the assembled crowd through a playful and exercise-laden song-and-dance routine.

Cross Strength also had a power activity on stage, where they demonstrated and urged people to participate in kick-boxing and agility training exercises.

Sahajyoga and Maria’s Yoga and Pranayam set up yoga corners, where people chose to perform flexibility exercises in a more traditional way.

“We do the Zumba routine with Latin music in the background, mainly because the person who came up with Zumba was a Colombian. The crux of the routine is to shed the feeling of a workout, and more of a party, so that people in the Zumba routine can have fun while working out. We always get a very good response at Happy Streets. We have been associated with this event since its initiation days in the city,” said Neha Shukla, who was at the Happy Streets routine on Sunday, along with her fellow dancer-trainer Shivani Jain, for Core Zumba.

Happy Streets is an initiative of The Times of India in association with the Pune police, Pune traffic police, Pune Municipal Corporation and is powered by Nyati.
