18:52Now PlayingSince 2019, democratic representative, Jeremy Gray of Opelika, has been trying to revoke the ban on yoga from Alabama public schools. His bill would allow school systems to offer yoga as an elective activity. On March 31st, representatives from two conservative groups said this bill could promote Hinduism or guided meditation practices. The bill proposed by Gray, who is a Christian himself, mentions that all yoga instruction shall be limited exclusively to poses and stretching techniques and exclude any chanting, mantras, and "namaste" greetings. Yet his bill did not advance in the Alabama Senate Judiciary Committee. With two members absent, the vote on the bill ended in a tie. Earlier this year, the state's House of Representatives passed the bill to override the ban. Gray expects the bill to come up again before the committee in the coming weeks.
