Alabama overturns decades-old ban on yoga in schools

The state's department of education had barred yoga in 1993, citing its connection to Hinduism.
The bill, brought for the third time by a Democrat, was approved by the state's Republican legislature and governor.
It limits yoga to stretches and poses, and prohibits non-English descriptions as well as "any aspect of Eastern philosophy and religious training".
