The Common Yoga Protocol (CYP) is a structured 45-minute Yoga routine that serves as the core of International Day of Yoga (IDY) celebrations. Developed in 2015 by some of India's most esteemed Yoga gurus, it was designed to facilitate large-scale, synchronized Yoga demonstrations for IDY. The sequence consists of carefully chosen asanas, making it an ideal introduction for beginners while ensuring accessibility for people of all ages and backgrounds. Beyond promoting physical health, CYP also raises awareness about Yoga's benefits among the general public. In just ten years, CYP has become one of the most widely practiced introductory Yoga programs. Every year on June 21st, the session is conducted in groups from 7:00 a.m. to 7:45 a.m., followed by an additional 15- minute customized segment, which may include Yoga practices, speeches, or prayers. This makes IDY a one-hour event from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. To ensure smooth participation in mass demonstrations, organizers encourage participants to familiarize themselves with CYP in advance. Ideally, learning CYP requires 15 hours of training (about one hour per day), but even a 5-hour introduction allows individuals to take part. As a result, training sessions are an essential part of IDY preparations. Experience over the past nine years has shown that many who learn CYP for IDY continue practicing it regularly, making their participation in IDY the first step toward a long-term Yoga journey.
