At 68 years old, Alice Tan started her yoga journey at Trust Yoga, her objective is just to keep healthy. She recognizes the different approach used in Trust Yoga versus where she previously practiced occasionally. She comes for group classes at Trust Yoga 6 days a week.
Before circuit breaker, I have encouraged her to try headstand in group class, she used to say, “I have no strength, I will break my neck, I am too old for this. No no no, you go ahead with the younger practitioners….”
Fortunately, she decided to give it a try. With great attention and focus, she slowly removed the fear. I put blocks under her shoulders to give her extra support initially. Slowly she could do without the blocks.
The 3 months circuit breaker disrupted her regular practice. She felt body stiffness and pain constantly, she made it a point to start her practice at the studio once phase 2 started. After a month of practice in phase 2, she started her Personal Training.
See her beautiful stand on tripod! Yoga is for everybody, there is no age limitation. Great job, Alice!
