Yoga and Pottery


Getting down-to-earth by wedging clay

My pottery teacher Mr Chua always say that doing pottery is akin to practicing yoga - both train our concentration, balance our left and right brain and make us more serene amidst the daily stresses of modern life.

Indeed, I feel very blessed to be able to undertake yoga sessions under the instruction of JL, my sis, at Indigo Flow Yoga Space. My once very tight hamstring is much more flexible now and am glad my body is not turning too stiff with all the sitting at my work desk.

Am very happy that she shall soon have her own new yoga studio, for beginners in yoga and yoga enthusiasts alike, soooo very near my workplace at Ubi Techpark! It has been a fun family affair, getting all the details ready for this cozy sanctuary - a great transformation from a once stark office!

i've been a lazy student of yoga but i'll train more now!


Centering the clay
Requires a centered mind
Balancing in a pose
Brings our awareness to the present.
