Most of school sports is pretty horrible and they barely teach you anything useful (in germany). But rather way too many dangerous exercises, like rolling over the head or standing on the head with little guidance, etc. All the important bits, I learned somewhere else, mostly in martial arts. How to savely fall. How to control your breathing to relax or engage. How to stand or sit for a longer time, but not getting uncomfortable. Being conscious of your body and listen to it. |

I almost killed myself on high school gym classes on this, if you combine it with subtle lunge forward, and end up hitting your head&neck perpendicularly to the ground. Vertebras shifted in my neck, doctor said if 1cm more I would be dead on spot. Absolutely stupid and useless exercise for school gym classes, I am pretty sure it creates tons of issues with neck, head and back decades down the road.
But try to bring yoga (without the spiritual aspects, just workouts) into gym classes and in primitive societies like back home in eastern Europe, and religious fanatics with a lot of political power will go nuts and fight it like Satan's coming (and of course they won).
