        abstract = {Aims & Objectives: The goal of the research study is Assess the Effectiveness of Structured Teaching Programme on Knowledge Regarding Breathing Exercises among Adolescents at Selected Colleges in Mysuru.
Methods: A pre experimental one group pre-test post-test design and non probability purposive sampling technique was used to select 60 adolescents. The tool used for the study consisted of socio-demographic data and structured knowledge questionnaire
Result: The mean post test knowledge score (21.68) of respondents was significantly higher than the mean of pre-test score (15.52) and the computed ‘t’ value (t59=15.54) for overall test was greater than the table value (t59=1.96) at 0.05 level of significance. The pre-test knowledge level of respondents was significantly associated with age, gender, and previous knowledge about breathing exercise
Interpretation and conclusion:  The calculated Chi square value (57.04) was significant and revealed that there was a significant increase in the post-test level of knowledge after the introduction of structured teaching programme.},
