Model Answer 2:
Introduction: and What it is?
Due to study pressure and long sitting, my life is very sedentary.
Therefore, to keep me physically fit, I do yoga after school.
When and Where you do it?
I just started it two months ago, so right now I can only do the beginner level poses (asanas).
But I am getting better day by day and I believe that I will be able to move on to the advanced ones soon.
Who you do it with?
Actually, my mother used to do yoga when she was a child.
So, when I was thinking about improving my physical fitness, she suggested that I try yoga.
She also wanted to do it again and we thought because of each other’s company, we would be more regular.
Another reason for picking yoga was that it doesn’t require any special equipment.
We just had to order two yoga mats.
We have a huge veranda in our house.
We normally spread the mats there.
However, when it is raining, we do it inside the house, in our living room.
Typically, we do it for about 40 minutes, in the evening.
And we try to do it at least 5 days a week.
And how you feel about it?
Yoga has changed my life considerably.
I not only feel physically fitter but also mentally more composed.
And it wasn’t easy, in the beginning, I wanted to give up.
The first week was especially tough and I had severe body ache and soreness.
But by the second week, I felt a lot better.
I think if it wasn’t for my mother pushing me, I would have given up.
Now, I am the one, pushing her.
I really look forward to doing it.
It has become a part of my routine and if I do miss it, I feel guilty somehow.
Conclusion:
I think everyone should definitely try yoga once in their life.
