Alabama House Votes to Overturn Ban on Yoga in Schools – But ‘Namaste’ Is Still Forbidden

The Alabama Board of Education voted in 1993 to prohibit yoga, hypnosis and meditation in public school classrooms

time.com

"A decades-old ban on yoga in Alabama public schools could be coming to an end. The Alabama House of Representatives voted 73-25 to approve a bill that will authorize school systems to decide if they want yoga to be allowed in K-12 schools. Yoga done in school would be limited to poses and stretches; but the use of the word "namaste" would be forbidden. Under the bill, the moves and exercises taught to students must have exclusively English names.

Democratic Rep. Jeremy Gray of Opelika sponsored the bill. He said he understood some gym teachers had been teaching yoga in class before they realized it was banned, and others wanted to offer it -- Gray, a former cornerback at North Carolina State University, said he was introduced to yoga through football, and that the exercises can provide mental and physical benefits to students. The bill now moves to the Alabama Senate."

Hopefully this bill dies in the Senate...why would a Christian nation teach kids something that worships Satan or whatever those towel heads pray to instead of teaching our kids Christian based exercises? Just because some former college football loser was indoctrinated by his school into yoga doesn't mean he should be able to indoctrinate our children into it.

But Bill gates has bought the rights to the game twister.
That will be approved asap...for those who are vaccinated

Did the fact this post had the word "bill" in it trigger your Bill Gates obsession?

Because this thread has ZERO to do with him of your obsession for him

Yoga is a highly popular form of exercise in the us. Case closed.

Yoga is an excellent form of exercise. And it helps athletes avoid injuries.

Please don't pretend it is satanic (or whatever).

Yoga is part of the Hindu religion, I can't see why the Supreme Court shouldn't ban it in Government Schools since they ban Almighty God, Bible Reading and prayers to Jesus Christ.

Unless the Supreme Court allows prayer only to False Gods and idols- like when the let the kindergarten kiddies sing hymns to B. Hussein O.

I could agree with that. Alabama kids learn English in a Southern accent. They should be familiar with English in a New York, Boston or Minnesota accent, as well as unaccented English like we speak here in western Pennsylvania.

Yoga is great exercise for improving balance, flexibility and strength and doesn't require any equipment or machines. Most people in Alabama are NOT stupid.

Be that as it may, it doesn't change the fact that Yoga is part of the Hinduistic Religion. Just like Prayer to Almighty God is also useful- but undoubtably part of the Judeo-Christian faith.

o instead of teaching our kids Christian based exercises

They failed on that too, it seems. How often are the kids engaged in helping the poor or sick there?
