Model:
Yoga is a very old form of exercising that combines breathing techniques, stretching and meditation. I believe that we should integrate yoga lessons in Physical Education classes in secondary school.
Yoga lessons would help teenagers manage their stress. During the teenage years, a lot of students live very stressful situations. Social pressure, school, work and family relationships are sometimes hard to deal with. Physical Education classes mean to teach healthy habits. Practising yoga would help students relax and find their personal balance.
In addition, Yoga could appeal to students who do not really like sports. Physical Education classes also mean to let teenagers try out different sports. Everyone has tried soccer, basketball and volley-ball once. However not many teenagers have tried yoga. This new activity could appeal to some of the students who prefer more low-paced, relaxing sports.
Finally, I suggest that yoga lessons be integrated in Physical Education classes in order to help teenagers manage their stress. Considering that healthy life habits are mainly taught in Physical Education classes, maybe we should consider integrating other topics such as healthy eating and sleeping habits.
