In one of Chicago's most dangerous neighbourhoods, a small group is trying a new tactic to curb the violence: teaching yoga.
A non-profit organisation called I Grow Chicago is offering yoga classes on the street in Englewood. Teacher Tameka Lawson says yoga's meditative focus could help cooler heads prevail the next time violence or vengeance looms.
The idea has also caught the attention of police. At least one officer has made Lawson's class part of an anti-violence programme for at-risk young people.
