Yoga bill headed for Senate as students adopt Republican Sen. Owen Hill's "crow " pose
Posted: March 10, 2015 at 8:50 am
Lenora Degen, a yoga instructor, told her after-school class at Buena Vista Elementary School in Colorado Springs about a yoga bill hearing in Denver, where committee chairman Owen Hill did the crow position afterward. The students then did their own crow poses. (Lenora Degen, Sen. Laura Woods Facebook page)
A bill to exempt yoga-teacher training studios from state certification breezed through Senate Appropriations today and now is on its way to the full Senate on the consent calendar, meaning no opposition is expected.
The bill earlier passed the Senate Education Committee where the chairman, Republican Owen Hill of Colorado Springs, did the crow yoga position after the hearing. The yogis in the crowd loved it.
Afterward, the sponsor, Sen. Laura Woods, R-Arvada, got a letter from Lenora Degen, a yoga instructor in Colorado Springs. Degen wrote:
I shared the story with my after-school class at Buena Vista Elementary School in Colorado Springs on Friday afternoon. We discussed the meaning of Democracy and how we have the right to let our elected officials know our points of view. Then I showed them the photo from the Denver Post (of Sen Owen Hill doing the crow in the Senate Committee room).
They were impressed and excited to try the pose themselves. Here they are, posing for you all. Its their way of saying THANK YOU!

After the picture of Hill doing the crow was posted a number of times on Twitter, Rep. Dan Pabon, D-Denver, couldnt resist.
Cant wait to see how @AlecGarnett follows that in house, Pabon wrote.
The bill also is sponsored by Reps. Garnett, a Denver Democrat, and Tim Dore, an Elizabeth Republican.
