Yoga Coaching Classes

College life is an important step stone in the life of any student. The excitement to delve into the newer realms, the expectancy of what lies ahead, and the eagerness to make the most out of college life are rampant in every college student’s mind. Added to this is the pressure of internships, extracurriculars, and studies. This is the phase when one transitions from a protected environment to a world full of responsibilities. To combat the mounting stress and to fulfill the charge of taking care of oneself, one can resort to practicing yoga routinely. Yoga can most effectively help in correcting the posture, enhancing flexibility and improving balance and thus brings balance to their whole body. The students need to balance academics, co-curricular activities, their school and social life. So the Yoga Club of Kristu Jyoti College of Management and Technology, Changanasserry organizes yoga coaching classes for the members of the club once in a week.
