Grounded Rap
By Carlos, 8th grade Spiritual Gangster

Two teenagers in orange headbands posing together and making hand gesturesYoga is the best, so don’t put it to the test.
Yoga is better than the rest.
It helps you breathe through your chest.
Now just go wit da flow and don’t mess wit Yoga.
It’s so fly it can make a drunk person sober

Yoga is the best. Don’t put it to the test.
Yoga is better than the rest.
It helps you breathe through your chest.
But when it’s time to leave
we want to stay
but the teacher says it’s time to say
Namaste.
Namaste.

  • Meet Keira and Kendall

    Hi, my name is Keira and I have been doing yoga for 4 years. It has been a great experience. Yoga has helped me calm down when I’m mad. Yoga makes me feel peaceful. Practicing yoga has helped me a lot by calming me down and making me more flexible. It’s fun learning new poses and helping others earn their bandanas. I wish I had started earlier. I had fun earning my bandanas, and if you do yoga, I hope that you’ll have fun earning yours.
    Hi! My name is Kendall, I’m 12 years old, and I have been doing yoga for four years. In these four short years, yoga has become a huge part of my life.
    From taking a deep breath before yelling at my mom or sister, teaching friends for my green bandana, to even making up flows of my own, I love every part of yoga. I especially enjoy the way I feel after class and the feeling I get from helping younger kids earn their own bandanas.
    Yoga has been a steady part of my life, always helping me through a difficult week, a bad grade, or friend and family problems. I hope to continue to practice and learn as I get older.
