Yoga At The University
What Do Students Gain By Adding One More Class?
It has never been harder to get into college. The pressure is intense and the costs, are staggeringly high once you make it in. Then there is social and academic pressure, not to mention figuring out how to be “on your own” for the first time in your life, while keeping up with all the social media. Not surprisingly, more and more students are feeling totally stressed and yoga is popping up on campuses to help.
What is it like to teach this group? YogaCity NYC reporter Carly Sachs went into the field, actually the campus, to talk to teachers about how and whether it is actually effective for this over-scheduled, overly stimulated group of young people.
