We have decided that we want to embrace local culture wherever we go, and try and do what the locals do, wherever we can. So when the opportunity came up to attend a Singaporean yoga class, we jumped at it.
Zoe, who was a friend of David, who we are staying with here in Singapore, ran the class in her apartment/yoga studio. She explained that she would take us through a series of gentle stretches, which sounded just grand. After about an hour she giggled and said some words you never are too excited to hear from a yoga instructor; “Let’s try something quite different. Let’s hang upside down”. It turns out she wasn’t joking. She had ropes on the wall and she talked us through it and before long we were hanging. Hilarious and supposedly therapeutic. It turns out that the purple block below my head my have been Zoe’s subtle way of saying I wasn’t quite as good at hanging as Jess was!
We finished the class just before 10pm, then went for a delicious Singaporean meal: chicken rice, chilli flavoured sting ray and iced milo. All the essential food groups ticked off to end a great day!
