This centuries-old tradition from India has been utilised as a continuous training method for some time in many international football clubs, US foot bathers and rugby, golf & cricket clubs in Australia, South Africa, New Zealand & the USA. Yoga is both preventative and therapeutic, and has been proven to provide the body and mind with both physical and mental advantages. Yoga differs greatly from other types of exercise because it produces movement without creating stress and bodily imbalances. The practise thus complements other kinds of practise ideally and offers exceptional benefits for any activity. The "postures" are the physical positions that co-ordinate movement and keep them extended and enhanced by various sections of the body. They work consistently in the back, neck, and shoulders of all main muscle groups, deep abdominals, hip and buttock muscle, even knees, foot, wrists, and hands. Although most postures have a non-aerobic character, they do really transmit oxygen to the cells of the body via the deliberate deep breathing of various muscle groups and their continuous stretch and contraction. Yoga may assist to check any muscle growth imbalance and make the body work better. If the body is flexible and soft, sports injuries are less likely to occur since the joints are lubricated. "When a lake's surface remains, you can see quite clearly down to the bottom" this is impossible when the surface is waved. Likewise, we may suppress mental turbulence while the mind still is by concentrating on perfect concentration. When, in any sport, a player tries to meet thousands, hundreds of thousands or plays for his nation, the expectations of millions of people are totally strained and their effectiveness decreases. No amount of coaching or preparation can prepare a player's psyche for uncertainty or anxiety during a game. With constant postures and deep abdominal breathing focus, we may improve our body awareness, alleviate chronic stress patterns in the body, calm the mind, focus our attention, sharpen our concentration and "remain in the zone." Many athletes suffer greater injuries because to the increasing emphasis on weight resilience strength training. This technique is extremely effective and efficient to increase strength and muscular development, but reduces the flexibility significantly. However, in combination with strength training and practical exercises (using the body so as to imitate the movements of their particular sports, while doing skills The athlete will not only improve the flexibility of yoga, but also the balance and equilibrium from yoga. When balance poses are learned, the sportsman is then conditioned to recover, moment after moment, automatically from any imbalances in his body. It is here when the athlete starts doing wonderful feats. You may utilise your body in ways that you never thought possible while you stay focused and free from injury. Yoga also supports tightening connective tissues, breaking off the attachments (slight scar tissue) from previous wounds and over-workouts, which are tightened as we age. Deep rhythmic breathing in yoga also generates and accumulates the life power energy or Prana in China's healing and martial arts, which is also called Qi or Chi. So you generate more energy than you spend in a yoga practise. The energy of our food is a cosmic energy rather than the caloric intake we eat. The term "yoga" implies "to connect or unite." It brings together body and mind to create a sensation of harmony. Man is a physical, mental and spiritual entity; yoga enables all three to grow in a healthy way. Yoga is a learning technique which seeks to balance "mind, body and spirit." Yoga is an old Indian philosophical practise which has historical roots. Yoga differs greatly from other types of exercise because it produces movement without creating stress and bodily imbalances. Other physical activities, such as aerobics, are simply physical. The growth of the spirit and astral body has nothing to do with them. Yogic practises refresh and assist the body with cosmic energy. The growth of the spiritual or astral body is quite unconnected. Yogic practises refresh the body and promote the use of cosmic energy

Yoga is thus often considered to be a spiritual system of physical education, but reality is the opposite: Yoga is a physical component spiritual system. Asanas are still a minor component of the whole physical cultural and education system called Hatha Yoga. The role of yoga in education from many perspectives, including the kind of education given to students all over the globe and the varied stress levels faced by children in the classroom setting. Also examined were the challenges, issues, disputes, diversions and dispersion of energy. We began with certain concepts and practises of yoga, initially to improve the learning skills of the children and then to encourage instructors to teach their topics in a little different manner. We believe that without consideration or care for the development of their whole personality, we educate our children. knowledge. We must examine what science says about children's development, what psychoanalysis says about children's psychology, and how the hormones and drums change and impact children's reasoning, emostructure and creative output.

Secondly, the brain is simply the vehicle through which we teach our mind. The mind has four distinct faculties designated as manas, buddhi, chitta and ahamkara in yogic language. The term manas implies something to be streamlined and to ponder about. The intelligence of Buddhimean. Chitta is a field of awareness that contains impressions. The idea of ego is Ahamkara. We feed on just one element of the mind - buddhi in the contemporary system of education. We do not address the manas component, the capacity of knowing what is right and what is wrong. There is no question of Chitta in the form of memory and experience. We are not dealing with Chitta. Even Ahamkara, the ego, we do not. We're rather tangling buddhis with knowledge without strengthening our mind's other dimensions. So we cannot use it productively and creatively in our lives despite all of our knowledge.

There must be a new method of teaching youngsters. It needs to be coupled with techniques to eliminate its mental blocs, that may inform you of psychological changes in your body and brain, make you aware of your own distractions and enable you to concentrate on the topic of your subject matter. So what did we do? What did we do? We began by using basic yoga practises in the classrooms, adopting a few ideas from RYE's work with youngsters in Europe (Yoga Research in Education). In RYE schools, two asanas and one pranayama start to finish lessons. So if a kid must attend six or 8 lessons a day, then at the beginning and at the conclusion of each session the child practises two asana and one pranayama seventeen times a day.

A regular practise of different yoga asanas helped me develop strength and enhance lean muscle mass. In my chosen physical activities swimming, cycling and running, especially, many muscle groups are underutilised. These advantages have strengthened bodily stability and substantially prevented overuse by strengthening the supporting,

functioning.

I was always very flexible as a swimmer. But traditionally my equilibrium is awful. But my coordination and balance have improved enormously with a regular yoga practise. Why does it matter? More balance and coordination imply improved control over how I shape my body and in turn lead to better techniques and shape—either a swimstroke, golf, jogging and jump shot or wrestling, every athlete spends his or her career perfecting.

Yoga always enhances joint and muscle flexibility, which is vital to the general structural health of the body. Enhanced joint and muscle pliance means a wider range of motion for a specific action or sequence of movement or an increase in latitude of performence. For example, a bathroom with soft shoulder and hip connections may collect and draw more water than a bathroom with restricted movement. The consequence is greater forward stroke action and an improved muscle economy. This expanded range of mobility in turn gives a specific muscle group a higher strength by increasing the total strength of each movement. The overall force may be improved. While there is considerable debate about the suitability of 'over-spreading' (especially for runners), I remain a big supporter, finding that the more I work for my flexibility, the less likely I am to be overused, is to stay flexibly.

Yoga is of major value to the capacity to produce a stress-free mind. Physical activity is utilised as an instrument to increase respiratory control, which helps to improve attention and concentration, to clarify thinking and make clear decisions. An important instrument in every field of athletics. Mental exercise in any sport will teach you how to manage your emotions so that your performance is not hampered by excitement and fear.

• Reduce anxiety and stress • Reduce cortical levels and increase calming hormones • Improve cognitive function • Reduce blood pressure and heart rate • Increase immune function pressure.

Excessive use of certain muscles causes muscular imbalances that alter the balance of the musculoskeletal and decrease biomechanical efficacy. Biomechanical imbalances lead to discomfort and damage, for sports people in the majority. A muscle contracts (i.e., an agonist) or is lengthened according to the activity; (i.e., an antagonist). For instance, the biceps tighten when you form a fist and raise your forearm while the triceps extend out. If you want to have flashy biceps and repeated biceps to pump up your muscle, you may cut down on the triceps and lose your capacity to straighten your arm. A good balance is necessary to work to maintain both muscular balance and functioning. For example, the quadriceps must contract while extending the hamstrings. This coordination not only a deeper and safer string stretch, but also the chance to enhance the quadriceps, particularly the inner quadriceps, which in many runners are weak.

Yoga may play an important part in maintaining mental control and focus, which helps a sportsman perform at his best, and yoga is a great aid for us. sports or exercise courses. Adding yoga to the curriculum of a school will also assist provide a great physical education programme to change conventional physical education.

Yoga may be a significant factor in developing mental control and focus that assists a gaming player. It gives children and adults the chance to succeed in physical exercise, which helps to create a basis for life that is robust.

Man is a social creature. There is a natural desire in him to live his life by being involved with society. The foundation of human existence is society. For survival and development, the human child is dependent on his family and other members of society. Only in a civilized society can a child's inherent strengths, abilities, and talents be developed. The ultimate goal of society is to promote healthy, happy, and fulfilling lives for its members. By assigning varied jobs to individuals, society generates conditions and chances for all-round personality development. Despite individual differences and their periodic disputes and tensions, society maintains tolerance, social peace, and collaboration. If society assists individuals in their development journey, qualified citizens contribute to society with their wisdom and experience. As a result, society and the individual are linked by an intimate and harmonious tie, and both strive for long-term harmony in the face of temporary problems and disputes (1).

Society is global and omnipresent, with no clearly defined boundaries or bounds. A society is a group of people who are bound together by particular relationships or behaviours that distinguish them from those who do not engage in those relationships or who behave differently. As a result, we can conclude that society is the entire complex of social behaviour and social interaction network (2). Each individual in society seeks and contributes something. Within a dominant, huge society, a society might also comprise of likeminded people ruled by their own standards and ideals; A society can be represented as an economic, social, or industrial infrastructure made up of a diverse group of people. Finally, we can say that Human societies are defined by patterns of relationships (social relations) among individuals who share a common culture and institutions; a given society can be defined as the sum of such relationships among its constituent members (3).

International Council for Sport and Physical Education (ICSPE) define the sport in following way ―Any form of physical activity that establishes the characteristics of play and which involves some form of struggle with oneself or involves competition with others is called sport (4).‖ Michener, (1977) has also defined sport according to the characteristics of the play – ―Athletic activity of competitive nature which requires physical ability or skill is called sport (5).‖ In many parts of the world, sport plays a significant role in the formation of society. It has an impact on the lives of those around us, as well as those who live within us. However, we are unable to fully appreciate the distinct impact of athletic and non-sporting socialization experiences on an individual's and society's general standard of living, on the character of a culture and the nature of interpersonal connections. Sport does not, by itself, make significant changes in a person's nature, attitudes, or behavior. Within a larger context of socialization processes, it always functions in
