The yoga teacher, Monty monkey sat on a big black rock facing all the participants and was surprised to see a large crowd that day.
"Welcome to the amazing world of yoga," Monty started his session.
"But where is the welcome drink, Sir?" Rumpy rabbit asked.
"Yes, we are here for the welcome drink!" screamed Foxy fox.
Monty's assistant, Dodo donkey, arrived with tender coconuts on a cart. Dodo had planned to attract more participants.
"Experience the power of yoga with tender coconuts today," brayed Dodo.
Suddenly, there was chaos as the participants ran to grab the coconuts before they got over.
Gillian giraffe pushed Monty aside in a hurry, who watched the scene helplessly.
Eddie elephant unknowingly stepped on Monty's tail. "Ouch!" screamed Monty.
"It's delicious," Gillian said.
"I am ready to join your yoga class if tender coconuts are offered at each session," Rumpy declared.
Unfortunately, the tender coconuts were gone before Timmu tiger and Bobo bear could receive theirs.
"How dare you?" roared Timmu. Bobo was furious, too and jumped on Dodo who kicked him away.
"Aaahhh..." Bobo fell on Eddie, and "Ghraaa...." Eddie threw Bobo away.
Everybody watched Bobo flying in the air and falling somewhere at the grassland's edge.
"Are you here to create chaos? Let's start screamed Monty. "We are celebrating World Yoga Day to get moving, stretchin and meditating for a good cause and improve our health."
All the participants finished drinking their coconut water and joined the session. Monty continued his session with a happy face.
"Can anyone say what the significance of yoga is?" Monty asked.
"To enjoy tender coconuts, we must practise yoga daily," replied Foxy.
"Attending yoga sessions can make you fly in the air," Eddie laughed, looking at Bobo.
