International Day of Yoga (IDY) has emerged as a global movement promoting holistic health, well-being, and preventive healthcare. In the run-up to the 12th International Day of Yoga (IDY) 2026, the Ministry of Ayush is undertaking several initiatives to promote mass participation and awareness of Yoga, both within the country and across the world.
In this regard, Morarji Desai National Institute of Yoga (MDNIY), an autonomous organization under the Ministry of Ayush has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Habuild Health Tech Private Limited on 13th March 2026 during the Yoga Mahotsav event marking the 100-days countdown to IDY 2026. This collaboration aims to conduct "100 Days Free Live Yoga Sessions" for the public as part of the Ministry's Yoga 365 campaign, with the objective of promoting Yoga as a global movement and integrating it into the daily lives of individuals.
As part of this initiative, participants can enroll in 14-day structured Yoga practice challenges, conducted through live sessions led by experts from MDNIY and Habuild Health Tech Private Limited. Multiple such 14-day slots are being organized during the 100-day period to facilitate participation of a large number of individuals. The sessions are being broadcast through the official YouTube platform of Ministry of Ayush to ensure wide outreach and accessibility.
The initiative will culminate in a large-scale online Yoga event aimed at attempting a World Record, tentatively proposed to be held on 27th May 2026, in the run-up to IDY 2026.
