We saw quite a demand for more such sessions in the future. \n[foogallery id=”5680″] \nDr Prathap – Chiropractor \nDr. Prathap is one of 10 practicing chiropractors in all of India and has his own wellness centre in Indiranagar. Originally from Canada\, Dr. Prathap completed his doctorate in new York and strongly believes that prevention is the best cure for any health related issues. \nMany in the audience were not aware of what and how a Chiropractor works\, so the talk by Dr. Prathap was enlightening to many. He brought along “Alfred”\, his partner in crime (!) – a skeletal spine\, to explain the physiology angle of his work. He demonstrated a few exercises that all of us could do on a daily basis to reduce the stress of long hours at a desk. His light humour entertained the audience through the 20 minutes he was on the dais. \n[foogallery id=”5682″] \nSiddharth & Shaila – Fitness Trainer & Zumba Instructor \nSiddharth comes from an IT background but decided to switch careers because he wanted to help people live a healthier lifestyle. He is a Crossfit Level 2 coach and a personal trainer who also helps in rehabilitation workouts for sports injuries. \nShaila is a Zumba instructor and full of life and vitality. \nSiddharth took the audience through the necessities of working out and remaining fit\, showing the audience what can be done even if one does not have the facilities of a gym. \nShaila took us through a fun Zumba workout which got everyone ready for eats. \n[foogallery id=”5686″] \nFarzin Sholapurwala – Certified Yoga Therapist and Trainer \nFarzin is a Life Member of the WZCC and has been practicing yoga for the last 15 years. She had found her own yoga centre and taught over 7100 students till date. She took the audience through some breathing techniques for glowing skin\, the benefits of yoga and then practised the Suryanamaskar along with members of the audience who were keen to know the correct way of performing it. \n[foogallery id=”5690″] \nRed Fork had arranged the snacks \nA Millet Salad and a Pasta Salad\, two kinds of sandwiches and baked yoghurt with granola. Everyone enjoyed it thoroughly and Chef Xerxes spent time explaining how one should eat a balanced meal\, avoid yo-yo diets and how millets are the new in ingredient and can be used in many ways. \n[foogallery id=”5692″] \n  \nDespite the small numbers\, it was a successful event.

As the Artistic Director of the ASHA Centre\, he has run numerous drama-based programmes with young people from all over the world including one play that was created with young South Africans and presented to Nelson Mandela at his home. \nAnd to give you all a heads up\, here’s something on the Bangalore Parsees The need to establish an Anjuman in Bangalore was felt by the Parsee Zoroastrians in the first quarter of this Century\, when in the year 1922\, after two or three preliminary meetings\, they inaugurated the Bangalore Parsee Zoroastrian Anjuman. Even though the first recorded settlement of the Parsees in Bangalore was in 1880\, it took nearly 42 years for the Parsee Zoroastrian population to increase sufficiently to fill this long felt need. \nThe newly established Anjuman then took over the management of the then existing “Ararmgah” which had been in existence since 1892\, when on the death of Seth Muncherji Dosabhoy Cama\, the Parsee residents of Bangalore obtained a plot of land from the Mysore State Government to bury their dead community members. \nEver since then\, as more and more assets were added\, the responsibilities of the Anjuman also increased. Gradually the local community also felt the need for a Fire Temple and a Tower of Silence. Thus in the year 1924-25\, Late Seth Dinshaw Cawasji came forward with a donation to the Anjuman to build a “Daremeher” for Bangalore Zoroastrians. Well-known personalities who took a leading part in this project were Late Seth Meherwanji Maneckji\, Late Seth Nusserwanii Mirza\, Late Seth Kaikhushroo Belgaumvala and Late Seth Rustomji and Nusserwanji Boyce. A year later the Anjuman built a community Hall for religious ceremonies at the “Aramgah” at a cost of Rs.5\,000/- and which amount was donated to the Anjuman by the Late Bai Pirojbai Fakirji Chaina\, for this specific purpose. \nSubsequently as the Zoroastrian population of Bangalore increased\, structures like the Lady Jehangir Kothari Memorial Hall\, the Tower of Silence\, the B.J. Entee Dharmashala \n \n  \nand the Kothari Hall Annexe were added to the assets of the Anjuman.and the Kothari Hall Annexe were added to the assets of the Anjuman.\nToday we number a mere 450-500 in number but constantly strive at keeping this community alive with events\, gatherings and preservation of our assets.   “Entrepreneurship is the pursuit of opportunity beyond the resources currently controlled.”
