According to Wikipedia, yoga is a group of physical, mental, and spiritual practices or disciplines which originated in ancient India. Yoga asanas as the postures or positions one performs while performing yoga.
Interestingly, according to a report by Business Today, there is a yoga for dogs known as ‘Doga’ and was initiated by Suzi Teitelman in New York way back in 2002. However, in Doga, the dogs are used as props.
