Recently Saudia Arabia is carrying out a lot of reforms in their country they have announced the lifting of a ban on women driving and also allowing women to watch sports in a stadium and now they have declared yoga as a sports activity. Now anyone can learn or teach yoga in Saudi Arabia as it is approved by Saudi Ministry of Commerce and Industry. Nouf Marwaai who is Saudi's first yoga instructor and a cancer survivor thanked King Salman for taking this step. Since United Nations declared 21st June as International yoga day a lot of debate is going on in India as many Muslims link yoga to Hinduism Saudi's step towards yoga is an answer to all those extremists.

        Hmm yoga as a sport. I don't know if I'd consider it a sport, but there are so many benefits it offers. I say good for Saudi Arabia declaring it a sport anyways!
