An International Day of Yoga event in New Jersey aims to expand accessibility by providing dedicated support for participants with special needs, creating an inclusive space for people of all ages and abilities to experience the benefits of yoga.
An International Day of Yoga event featuring dedicated special needs assistance for participants of all age groups is set to take place in New Jersey later this month, in what organizers describe as a first-of-its-kind initiative in the United States.
The event, organized by Faith Day Habilitation (Faith Health Group) in collaboration with the Consulate General of India in New York, will be held on June 18, 2026, at the Faith Day Habilitation facility in Fairfield, New Jersey.
According to organizers, the programme aims to make yoga and wellness practices more accessible by providing specialized support tailored to individuals with varying physical, developmental, and support needs. The initiative is designed to enable participants of different ages and abilities to safely engage in yoga while benefiting from its physical, mental, and emotional aspects. The event aligns with the broader observance of the International Day of Yoga, which is celebrated annually around the world to promote health, well-being, and mindfulness.
Organizers said the programme reflects their commitment to building a more inclusive community where healthcare and wellness services are accessible to all individuals, regardless of ability. The event will focus on creating an environment that supports independence, dignity, and participation through person-centered assistance.
The gathering is expected to be attended by community leaders, healthcare professionals, and members of the Indian diaspora. Among the chief guests scheduled to attend are Binaya Srikanta Pradhan, Consul General of India in New York, and Acharya Dr. Lokesh Muni, founder of Ahimsa Vishwa Bharti.
“Our mission is guided by faith, integrity, and respect,” said an event spokesperson. “We are proud to provide exceptional care that honors dignity and supports families through every stage of life. This event marks a massive step forward in making holistic wellness truly accessible to everyone.”
Due to the specialized assistance and accommodation arrangements planned for participants, attendance will be limited to invited guests. Organizers have requested attendees to wear white attire and bring their own yoga mats.
The event will take place at the Faith Day Habilitation facility located at 7 Spielman Road, Building B, Fairfield, New Jersey, beginning at 10 a.m.
