Having pioneered the concept of on-board yoga, SpiceJet, known for its ardent customer engagement initiatives and predominance in innovation in the Indian aviation industry is all set to recreate the enigma this ‘International Day of Yoga’.
After receiving an overwhelming response from customers and the industry as a whole the airline which introduced its brand new initiative - ‘High on Yoga@35000 feet’ last year has planned to co-partner with Isha Foundation yet again to execute the program scheduled for 21st June 2016. SpiceJet will continue to offer Yoga on board without compromising on passenger safety and within regulatory compliances.
SpiceJet, in partnership with Isha Foundation (isha.sadhguru.org) has constituted this unique program wherein SpiceJet’s crew trained by Isha Foundation instructors would perform Upa-Yoga practices specifically designed to be done on board SpiceJet’s long haul flights. Travelers would be encouraged to participate in performing travel-friendly practices themselves while seated. Upa-Yoga is a simple yet powerful system of exercise designed by Sadhguru that activates joints, muscles and energy system. In addition to these benefits, the practices will also help passengers overcome jet lag, fear of flying and breathing difficulties.
Around 40 SpiceJet crew members specially trained to perform Upa-Yoga trained by dedicated Isha instructors will undertake a ten minutes session on board, across the SpiceJet network.
