This Young Yoga Guru Makes The Blind See Yoga

13 year old Prisha in India’s Tirunelveli district is emerging to be a Yoga Guru of a different kind. She teaches Yoga to visually challenged children in schools, colleges and  hostels during her free time. Ganesh Kumar, a visually challenged school student who she trained, loves performing Yoga. He was even part of a a world record yoga event. “I’m extremely glad and grateful that my memory power and concentration are improving through the daily yoga” says Ganesh.

Inspired to learn Yoga from her advocate  mother Devi Priya, Prisha took to Yoga when she was just a year and a half. “It is very important to teach yoga to the visually challenged because it helps improving their eyesight, concentration, memory power;  it also gives greater spatial awareness, mental acuity, balance, confidence in movement, and over all physical fitness”,  Prisha told tellmystory.in

Prisha has also set more than seventy records in Yoga including performing Yoga swimming, blindfolded, solving  Rubik’s cube, skating and  ambidextrous writing and Hula Hoop cycling.
