Yoga

My grounding in yoga is with Ashtanga Yoga back in Sept 2001 with my first teacher Kiran Sohal, in Toronto. After the first session, I already knew yoga would be my lifestyle choice. Fast-forward to 2018, I can say my life has considerably improved through my continued practice not only of Ashtanga but all other forms of yoga that came my way. Yes, not just my yoga practice, but my LIFE has been better off. Yoga acts as a nexus that pulls everything together into a seamless and optimized singularity - your career, love life, fitness, spirituality, state of mind, etc. You just feel solid within, ready to accept and face the challenges of life that's always around the bend. With my style of yoga now, I remain strong, I don't get sick and my ageing process slows down to a near-halt.
