What have I learned recently (DEEP WORK)

Recently, I have been returning to taking some weekend 𝗬𝗼𝗴𝗮 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗽𝘀 and doing 3-hour practice with my teacher in the afternoons, while I “𝘮𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘦” myself in longer practice and study.

It has been a long since we have had the opportunity to do a prolonged practice at the studio in the past 2 years. 

And here is what I have learned:

💡 I have learned that doing 3 60 minutes classes, is different than doing a full 3-hour practice. 

💡 I have learned that deep work, is more fruitful than shallow work.

💡 I have learned that the practice, ultimately is about STAYING. It’s never TOUCH AND GO. 

💡 I have learned that stability, always comes before freedom.

Maybe I need to add this, maybe I need to add more. 

Maybe what we need to do is to do less, but to repeat and be consistent with something. 

💡 I have learned that it’s repetition and consistency that makes progress, not adding more things.

If you want everything you end up being mediocre in everything. 🤷‍♀️

DEEP WORK over SHALLOW WORK.

MASTERY over NOVELTY.

DO LESS, but BETTER.

Thank you @yogiarun for his 10-hour Mastery of Backbend Workshop, not only it “opens my heart” AGAIN, it re-opens my mind to re-think what practice is all about.❤️

Thank you @heebs and @dagge_oh_oh for their Transformer Yoga workshop, giving me so many more ideas for using props to enhance and transform our yoga practice.

Thank you @patrickcreelman for coming to Singapore and seeing us, and have revived me both as a student and teacher of yoga.

And to all my yoga buddies, old and new, all the relationships we build upon on yoga. It is BETTER TOGETHER. 💫

If you have been going to drop-in classes, it’s time to consider taking some workshops and experience a longer, deeper practice.

I have revised some old teaching, and renewed some, and excited to bring them to you in class. 🥳

Join me in Alignment and Chair classes at Ngee Ann City and Suntec.

My Chair Workshop will return in August. 

And Teachers’ Practice is coming.

Stay tuned. 😊
