12.PE classes usually mean running,jumping and playing ball games.But students at Aspire Middle School in Lacey,Washington spend their PE classes doing yoga."PE has been either dance or yoga since we started,"said the headmaster Monica Sweet."They're both very popular classes."
Teacher Anne Kohlbry developed the yoga program and began teaching it when the school opened in 2009.Each class lasts about 50minutes.It includes some warm-up activities such as walking laps(跑道的圈) around the school,controlled breathing,stretches (伸展) and a few minutes of relaxation.
Kohlbry usually plays classical music while students stretch on yoga mats.They practice several classic poses.For example,to do the mountain pose,students stand tall with feet together.They take a deep breath and raise their hands over their head.Their palms(手掌) face each other with arms straight.Then they try to reach up toward the sky with their fingertips.
When doing yoga,students need to be calm and find the balance of their bodies.It helps them focus,according to Kohlbry.
"Focus is a big thing-middle school kids are so distracted(分心的),"she told the local newspaper The Olympian.
Yoga also makes students healthier.
"I've had a lot of kids saying,'Madam,I've developed a six-pack muscle(肌肉 )'because we do a lot of strength training,"she said.
Eighth-grader Jessica Wallingford,14,likes the class."In the two years that I've been here,there are a lot of things I've improved on.It's pretty cool.It's better than running laps,"she said.
"It feels like exercise,"said Thomas Shiveley,11."It's not tiring,but it's good exercise."

分析 体育课通常意味着跑、跳、打球等.但是在华盛顿的Aspire中学,学生们把他们的体育课用来练瑜伽,校长 Monica Sweet介绍说:"自从我校开办以来,体育课要么是跳舞要么是练瑜伽,它们都是很受欢迎的课."
Anne Kohlbry 老师制定了瑜伽项目,并在2009年学校开办的时候开始教瑜伽.每堂课持续大约50分钟,包括一些热身活动,如:绕着跑道的走,控制呼吸,伸展活动和几分钟的放松活动,当学生们在瑜伽垫上伸展的时候,Kohlbry 老师通常会播放古典音乐,他们会练习几个经典的姿势.
例如,为了练习山式,学生们两脚并拢站好,他们深呼吸,然后把双手举过头顶,手掌相向,胳膊伸直,然后尽量用手指尖伸向空中,练瑜伽时,学生们需要平静并且保持身体平衡,这有利于他们集中精力,据
Kohlbry老师介绍说:"精力集中是一件很重要的事情,中学生容易分心,瑜伽还会让学生更健康."
有许多孩子说:"夫人,我已经练出了六块腹肌."她说:因为我们做了大量的力量训练."八年级的Jessica Wallingford,14岁,喜欢这种课堂,她说:"在我来这里的两年中,我在很多方面得到了提高,太酷了,这比绕操场跑道还要好."11岁的Thomas Shiveley说:"练瑜伽感觉起来像锻炼,但是并不累,这是很好的训练."
