Nouf Al-Marwaai, chairwoman of the Saudi Yoga Committee, expressed her pride in the outstanding levels achieved by the Saudi Yoga team.
“This is our first participation in the team’s history, but our Yoga team’s champions were able to succeed in winning five medals, which is a large number compared to the intensity of the competition, which gathered very experienced international practitioners and also despite the young age of the participating Saudi practitioners,” Al-Marwaai was quoted by Arab News.
