People will always surprise you.... so don't be deceived by Wei yee's dainty, pixie like figure. Despite her petiteness, she is packed full of punch and bursting with energy and a strong 'can do attitude' head on her shoulders. With big aspirations in and outside the sphere of yoga, this young lady is sure to to excel in whatever direction her sights take her! I love the beauty and power expressed in her yoga poses and her clean, flowing lines in the photos captured below. Young.., old.., big.., small.... JUST WORDS. Push beyond those boundaries and deceiving categories you mentally confine yourself within, and your body will always surprise you and be true to you. Wei yee shows you how.
When did you first start yoga?
You could say I started when I was about 6 when I used to copy my grandfather whom was 80 at the time doing headstands every morning.
Why did you start yoga?
I have to admit that I actually took my first class purely out of vanity and in pursuit of a better physique at the time. But after one class I realised there was a whole lot more which yoga offered that none of the other gym classes I had attended ever did. I was hooked from there.
Unification and harmonisation of all things within and around us whereby we ultimately learn to understand the true nature of everything as it is. It teaches mindfulness of how you treat yourself and all others around you.
Understanding how to be more mindful of everything I do in life and how my actions impact others. As a training teacher, the most rewarding thing is to be able to pass all I have learnt to others.
Physically, I find postures requiring flexibility quite challenging in yoga as I am naturally not very flexible. In a more subtle sense, learning to apply the patience and calm we learn in yoga to everyday life is a big challenge.
i) I recommend it to all people who work in corporate or sedentary jobs because we really need the movement!
ii) It's such an amazing workout physically because it works on both what you see on the outside and your internal organis. I don't know why anyone would not give it a go?
iii) I recommend everyone to retain an open mind and try more than one class before they conclude whether yoga is for them. There are a multitude of yoga styles now being taught which will suit all tastes and ages. Keep a curious mind.
Release, peaceful, relaxed.
To see others around me smile.
To be able to have the luxury of just relaxing and not going through my list of chores. A yoga class has to be in there at some point though.
It would have to be my five week trip to Europe (UK, France, Spain, Switzerland, Italy) with my 3 closest girlfriends. We didn't follow a tour, just our maps.
Potatoes in any shape or form.
Pride and Prejudice.
That I absolutely love tha alpine and love hiking the high country regardless of what country I am in. The last few years I've been making annual trips up to the Snowy Mountains to explore the alpine walks there.
