Its<br \/>\nactivities are coordinated and supervised by a group of instructors called<br \/>\ncaptains, who give training in athletics (track and field events), aquatics,<br \/>\ngymnastics, games, combative sports and asanas. The yearly schedule is divided<br \/>\ninto four seasons: during the first three, there is a period of training<br \/>\nfollowed by competitions; at the end of the year, participants prepare an<br \/>\nannual demonstration of physical culture which is presented on December 2nd at<br \/>\nthe Ashram sportsground.
