Favorite yoga pose?

Favorite Dessert?

What got you to be a midwife?
This one is tough!
The term Mid-wife is derived from old english: with woman. Being able to just stay with the lovely expecting moms, share some little tips and support the mother-to-bes in their pregnancy journey and birthing process are truly precious moments for me.
Yoga vs aerial hoop/pole dancing?
Never stop learning and exploring.
Fancy tricks and moves in aerial hoop/pole dancing WOW me. After being so ‘Down-to-earth’ with mat yoga practice for 7 years, I am surprised to find myself enjoy dancing in the air with my favourite chilling playlist.
Must-have in a yoga class:
A beginner’s mind to let go of your ego
