Chennai: A 17-year-old girl from Chennai has set a new record by holding the mermaid yoga pose (Eka Pada Rajakapotasana) for the longest duration at Aum Yoga Center.
Nandini Sarada who is a dancer and practitioner of yoga, created a new world record for the longest time holding the mermaid yoga pose — a position that opens the hips and arches the back into what resembles a mermaid’s tail arch.
In the attempt to set a new world record Nandini held her contorted body in place for 51 minutes and 58 seconds.
The founder of Aum Yoga, Dr. Kavitha Moahan says, “I have been practicing and teaching yoga for more than 20 years. I won two Guinness world record and now training my students to achieve their dream. Nandini was training with me for more than a year and now for the record she is been practicing for almost a month.”
