Flexibility

Flexibility & Yoga

For PE this week we did yoga to test out flexibility (yoga refers to traditional physical and mental discipline that originated in India) first we had to relax our bodies in order to carry out the yoga properly, and practice breathing correctly. We did different stretches in order to test our flexibility (the distance of motion of a joint, which may be increased by stretching) I think the yoga was a good way of relaxing the body after a day at school, and it would be a good way of waking yourself up and your muscles in the morning before school/work. I really enjoyed doing yoga as part of PE; I didn’t think it was too strenuous which was good.
