I started my yoga journey in 2004 with weekly classes at a community club. After a 10-year break, I resumed daily practice in 2014 while in China, though I noticed a decline in my abilities. Upon returning to Singapore, I joined Real Yoga, where the practice became more challenging, and I discovered I had scoliosis. Yoga then became a way to manage the condition. In 2022, I completed a 200-hour teacher training course, deepening my understanding of yoga as a philosophy that unites body, mind, and soul. Taking the course was life changing experience as it not only strengthen my own practice, but it also gave me the skills and knowledge to inspire others on their yoga journey.
