Yoga and Aerobics


Today on the 27th of February we had an activity. It was 'Yoga and Aerobics', yoga is an activity where you would move your body into a pose representing a bit of nature, it is used to stretch and relax the muscle. Aerobics was an activity close to dancing. It was when you had to keep moving your body trying to burn as much fat as possible, not stopping but slowing down when tired. It is moving many body parts.

I would put my participation level at merit level. I had the right gear on the day(PE) so I was set and ready to exercise. I had tried all the techniques that were shown in Yoga like the 'one legged tree stance' or the 'dog stance'. I found it a little embarrassing doing these stance during class. I also tried my hardest at the aerobics because I found it fun and motivating.

Several factors influenced my participation on the day. One would be motivation. what I mean by this is that when people say you are doing yoga, you don't necessarily feel like the happiest in life but when I actually did it I actually felt a difference with my body especially the chest area. The second would be the peers. It felt weird to stretch out my body in front of everybody but when I saw the others do it I felt less self aware and had fun with it.

If I were to improve I would try my hardest no matter what happens from peers to feeling just embarrassed I would try my hardest so that I can have the most fun as possible instead of feeling shy and then becoming more opened. I would try to be direct and open from the start.
