| Yoga Classes, Dancing At Churches After Dark Meredith May May 30, 2010 Moonlight leads the way to Grace Cathedral's 1-ton bronze Doors of Paradise, and behind them dancers are swaying on the labyrinth as a reverend spins ephemeral techno music. A black-and-white art film flickers on the church wall. Couples quietly stroll the aisles in private conversation, while others play high-tech hide and seek, texting and sending photos from pew to pew. It's not your grandmother's church - it's Episco Disco, a monthly nondenominational gathering of people in their 20s and 30s designed to take the fear factor out of... |

| Prisoners in an Indian state who attend yoga classes will be freed early because the lessons improve self-control and lessen aggression, authorities said. For every three months spent doing sun salutations, deep breathing exercises and balance postures, a prisoner will get 15 days off their sentence, Madhya Pradesh state's inspector general of prisons told AFP. "Yoga is good for maintaining fitness, calming the behaviour, controlling anger and reducing stress," Sanjay Mane said. "When a prisoner attends yoga sessions and fulfils some other conditions, he will be considered for a remission if his jail superintendent recommends his case." Attending literacy classes... |
Dahn-Yoga Touted “Peer-Reviewed Study” Stinks

| I have been asked to write this review by a party who wishes to remain anonymous because of the fear of reprisal. See this article for background. Also this. Dahn yoga might not be of interest to you, but this review is larger than that. It will show you how easy it is to publish material in a well known journal that is poor at best. Civilians are often shocked to discover that peer-review is only a weak indicator of correctness. This article removes some of that mystique... |
Dahn Yoga Called “Cult” in Lawsuit

| Regular readers might recall the series of articles in which I detailed an experiment I designed and proctored to test some of Dahn Yoga’s more outlandish claims. That series is here: I, II, III, IV, V. Dahn Yoga leader Ilchi Lee created the Korean Institute of Brain Science, a group that claimed it could train children to “read” colors of cards inside opaque envelopes, using “Heightened Sensory Perception.” Because I had experience in these matters and because I was officemate with a physician who was also a Dahn member, I was able to run a test to see whether the... |

Efforts at Regulation Have Yoga Teachers Bent Out of Shape

| Citing laws that govern vocational schools, like those for hairdressers and truck drivers, regulators have begun to require licenses for yoga schools that train instructors, with all the fees, inspections and paperwork that entails. While confrontations have played out differently in different states, threats of shutdowns and fines have, in some cases, been met with accusations of power grabs and religious infringement — disputes that seem far removed from the meditative world yoga calls to mind. In April, New York State sent letters to about 80 schools to warn them to suspend teacher training programs immediately or risk fines of... |
Yoga is Not Just for Latte Sippers Anymore

| Yoga is not just for the latte sippers anymore. The long popular exercise amongst Bay Area health enthusiasts can be enormously beneficial to people going through cancer treatment, helping cope with insomnia, the effects of medication and fatigue. The discipline is also good for cancer survivors, as they rebound from their illness. However, those who have been through cancer treatments often can't afford a gym membership or fitness studio classes. That's why Halle Tecco started Yoga Bear, a nonprofit organization that allows cancer survivors to take classes at local yoga studios free of charge. Why yoga? "It's the community yoga... |

| Reporting from Sacramento -- The battle over California prison inmates' constitutional rights has come down to this: finger-pointing over who dreamed up the idea of giving convicted criminals taxpayer-funded bingo and yoga rooms. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and state Atty. Gen. Jerry Brown have lambasted effortsby J. Clark Kelso, the court-appointed overseer of prison healthcare, to spend $8 billion on a "gold-plated utopian hospital plan" for 10,000 inmates. It features a "holistic" environment with natural light and space for yoga, music, horticulture and art therapy. On Tuesday, Kelso fired back, saying that the facilities are meant for mentally ill inmates, and... |
