Ms Pettifer said the session aimed to be fun and accessible for people who might not have done yoga before.
"It's more about providing a feeling of what it's like when we come together with a common goal and uplift each other," she said.
Donations will be accepted to support the work of anti-trafficking organisation Odanadi Seva Trust.
