The International Day of Yoga is recognized by the United Nations, and is celebrated around the world.

In 2014, India’s prime minister, Narendra Modi, in his United Nation’s address, suggested an annual Day of Yoga on June 21, as it is the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere and shares a special significance in many parts of the world. The goal was to recognize and celebrate yoga as an instrument to global health, harmony and peace.

The first International Day of Yoga was observed around the world on June 21, 2015. 35,985 people, including Prime Minister Modi and dignitaries from 84 nations, performed 21 asana (yoga postures) for 35 minutes at Rajpath in New Delhi, becoming the largest yoga class ever held.
