Visitors practice poses inspired by observing elephants’ shadows.

Kerala has introduced Elephant Shadow Yoga, combining yoga practice with observation of elephants’ movements and shadows. According to The Hindu, sessions emphasize mindful movement, ethical interaction, and observation skills.

Participants report relaxation, creativity, and physical engagement. Trainers ensure safe interaction, structured routines, and animal welfare. Critics question novelty versus conservation, but organizers highlight wellness, educational enrichment, and unique tourism experience. Future expansions include group performances, themed sessions, and workshops integrating wildlife observation with mindfulness.
