We trained from 8am to 4pm and were sent home with hours of homework practicing choreography and coaching. One of the house-keeping rules during the course was never to yawn! If the teacher caught someone yawning, they had to do 20 pushups! I never got 20 push ups but I certainly gave a yawn with my mouth closed. If only they knew the function behind a yawn -to wake us up, stretch the lungs and refocus the brain. Just what we needed. Worth 20 push ups I say!
