Abstract

The paper builds upon the topic of "The Significance of Yoga as Prevention and Resolution of Health Issues among Piano Students" from the conference in 2021. The author now presents insights from her international internship with a yoga instructor for musicians, during which she gathered a portion of data for her qualitative research.

The main section of the contribution introduces this research, which explores the potential of yoga to support the physical and mental well-being of music students-focusing on the impact of yoga on piano students and their performance practice, emphasizing the enhancement of overall comfort during playing and studying. The research, employing quantitative and qualitative methods, examines how yoga influences various aspects of participants' academic and personal lives.

The outcomes of this study could offer a fresh perspective on leveraging yoga within music education to foster prevention for overall well-being.
