Yoga makes you a better student
Manama : The ancient practice of yoga offers a multitude of benefits to modern-day students at almost every grade level.
Yoga’s combination of breath and movement can help alleviate social and academic stress, clear the mind and soothe cramped bodies jammed into desks and hunched over computers.
This was the message given by Iyengar Yoga instructor Ehsan Ashgar to the students of the Asian School.
He was highlighting the need of Yoga and Meditation to keep the body and mind healthy on the occasion of the second International Yoga Day celebrated in the school’s APJ Abdul Kalam Memorial Auditorium. The theme for Ehsan’s programme was ‘Yoga for Good Health.’
The two days sessions focused on asana and pranayama techniques. Students of std. IX E performed different asanas and advanced Yoga postures under the guidance of School Yoga instructor Simi Jacob.
It was a beautiful show displayed to the rhythms of light and pleasant music. Mr. Ehsan also enlightened the school assembly with his demonstration and explanation. Sandhya, Class Teacher of IX E, gave a short speech on Yoga. The slideshows and other presentations of the day were effective enough to throw light on the importance of Yoga.
