Victor has been practicing and teaching yin yoga since 2004 when he met his teacher Paul Grilley. He drew his influence from various styles of yoga from classical to modern yoga systems. His style is goal oriented and precise. He believes that yoga should have both elements of Yin & Yang to bring the body, energy and mind to balance. Only by experiencing the two extremes will one be able to come back to the “centre”. Therefore, Victor emphasizes on being aware of the changes that take place in the practice and being in the moment. Victor is well-known in Asia for his dedication and passion in yin yoga.

He is also a Tibetan Buddhist and Meditator for more than 15 years and has the good fortunate to study with authentic teachers of his lineage. He has been invited to teach in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Hong Kong and Japan & China.

  Brief Description of Workshops:
 
 

Yin Yoga Gain more flexiibility out of your yoga practice

Yin Yoga is a quiet practice that enables one to achieve flexibility, energy re-balancing and meditation. Yin postures require one to stay in the postures for longer amount of time in a relax way. The postures are chosen to work on either a particular joint or meridian path. By choosing a particular joint, it works into deep connective tissues that enable greater space at the joints. This eventually leads to greater flexibility of the joint. If a meridian pathway is chosen, then the poses will be able to enhance healthy meridian path for chi to flow freely. You will also experience a short breathing practice which cultivates energy balance, yoga nidra and meditation for deep relaxation, at the end of the practice.

 

Workshop 1 : Hips, Sacrum & Lower Back

In this workshop, you will be practicing a series of Yin postures which targets the lower body. It targets sacrum, hips and lower back. This series helps one to open up the hips and to be able to sit comfortably for the practice of any seated posture, especially for meditative practices. Students will feel more flexibility to help them to move deeper into yoga poses after this practice.

 

Workshop 2 : The Path of Integration - Yin to Yang Yoga

This practice beings with yin yoga postures, and transit into a dynamic yang vinyasa (flow) practice in the second half. Yin postures enable the major joints to be more subtle and this prepares the body for more dynamic yang practice. This practice liberates body restrictions and allows more energy to flow through the body. This class enable one to understand how yin postures can be logically connected with a yang practice. Therefore, you are likely to discover new awakening of the body when both yin and yang yoga are done in a single session.
