We all know that yoga is a good self-cultivation exercise, which can exercise the body, relax the mind, and improve health. However, yoga also needs scientific and standardized guidance and practice, and cannot be arbitrarily followed, otherwise it will bring counterproductive effects and even endanger lives.
Recently, a serious teaching accident occurred in a dance and yoga studio in Wuhan, Hubei. At that time, when a woman was in a yoga class, the instructor pressed her leg, and as a result, she broke her left thigh due to excessive force, and it is said that there was a loud "rattling" sound at the scene, and the woman then let out a miserable scream. The woman was then taken to the hospital for ** and is still under observation.
According to the woman's recollection, at that time, she felt that her legs were swollen, and the bones were pushing up the muscles, which was very painful. Afterwards, the person in charge of the yoga studio said: their coaches have been professionally trained and assessed, and have legal coaching certificates, this incident is an accident, they will strengthen management and supervision, and similar things will not happen in the future. He has apologized to the injured woman and borne her medical expenses and lost work expenses, totaling 50,000 yuan.
In hindsight, many people were skeptical about the quality of teaching at this yoga studio, believing that their instructors were unprofessional. The amount of compensation is too small, if it is a thigh fracture, at least 3 months or so can not go to work, as the old saying goes, "hurt the muscles and bones for a hundred days", and I don't know if there will be sequelae in the future.
Some netizens also said: The teacher is still unprofessional, and now many of them are out of crash courses, ** go to substitute for a few months of intensive training, and it has long been an open secret in the industry that various coaching certificates can be bought with money. I have also been injured by yoga teacher leg press before, and I can't walk normally for more than a week, and I am almost dying of pain......Although it is called a leg press, it is actually a relay process in which some muscles relax and some muscles exert force. This kind of unprofessional leg press without self-weight and external force is inevitable.
This yoga tragedy once again triggered a deep reflection on the professionalism of yoga instructors. Many people have been injured in yoga classes, especially the teachers who have been trained in the crash course, who may have obtained a qualification in a short period of time, but lack real teaching experience and professional skills. This irresponsible approach to training increases the risk of injury to trainees.
Yoga is a sport that requires patience and nuance, not just a bunch of fancy movements. The professionalism of the teacher is directly related to the physical health of the students, and the act of spending money to buy a coaching certificate does not inherently represent the real professional level. It is hoped that this event will attract the attention of relevant institutions and more strictly regulate the training and evaluation of yoga instructors, so as to ensure that students can truly get physical and mental relaxation and health when practicing yoga.
