NEW DELHI: A yoga teacher of the University of Delhi is trying to get into the Limca Book of Records by performing 535 Surya Namaskars in one hour on May 15.
Varun Arya teaches the ancient yogic postures and exercises to teachers and students of Hansraj College. The 30-year-old has been practising Surya Namaskar asanas for the last eight months.
Arya is also eyeing the Guinness Book of World Records, for which he will perform 8,000 yoga asanas in 100 hours. “I started my career practising Surya Namaskars. I do 500 asanas at a time, but my target is 535 in an hour without a break,” says Arya.
