wow! met up with fylvia and lilian today for a hot yoga tryout at san's workplace - Absolute Yoga @ Telok Ayer Street. Initial plan was to meet 0640 (that's right, 640am!) at tanjong pagar mrt station. Soon, lilian text me sating that she's late and will be in the cab. Ended up, i was the last one to arrive and fylvia the first. Haha. It was quite a virgin experience, going to a yoga studio (last time at the community centre was pretty straight forward and we didn't have to do any shower or changing there) whereas this time we have to. We were kinda lost, in a small studio which we managed to get it all sort out eventually. Next was the class itself.

It was a totally different experience from what i had attended at the cc and today's. Hot yoga meaning that you are doing yoga in a hot room right? But it turns out to be quite not what i'd imagined it to be.

Paused.... Happened to be sitting on a very smelly seat... When is my stop nearing??

Found out the smelly source... Its from a girl leaning on the glass panel beside me via her backside.. *faint*

Air cleared, now that she'd moved away to look at the view from the train's windows..

Okies, back to the topic. the class was pretty small though it can contain 20 people tops(?). Anyways, my eyes became dry and i almost though the my contact lenses are gonna melt in my eyes! The room was quite warm, stuffy kinda way, think suana. i have a little difficulty knowing what are the exact moves that the instructor rene was trying to tell as there was little demostrations. Its ok for those who had attended the class before but for those who are attending the class the first time will definitely be lost. Luckily san was there so we kinda see what she did and we just follow suit. san's moves were so beautiful and she just made it seemed very easy! Not forgetting her very tone body. Haha.

Lilian was already perspiring when we had just started the first course.. Followed by me. I could feel beads of sweat flowing down from my arm, my chest and my face. my legs were already decorated with tiny beads of perspiration! Amenities were good there. you get a locker with locks to place your personal belongings, there clean shower rooms with shampoos and shower gels provided. Theres also changing rooms in both male and female sections.

But to go for a second section could prove to be quite challenging because its too early and the two girls felt very tired. For me, i felt very refresh and full of energy. Perhaps its because its a really long time since i get to sweat it out and do some exercises... Am kinda looking for the next class but i don't think it'll happen soon.. Anyone interested in hot yoga? Huh? Go alone? Dun wan, its funner to go with friends..

We did agree that the price was quite steep though but i guess we need to check out more on what's the market rate plus to see if the instructor is good or not..

Whoops! Whole blog on yoga. Haha. It was fun lah.
