Justin started his yoga journey at the age of 13 in Malaysia by self-learning through reading a book about yoga. He immediately fell in love with yoga when he successfully touched his big toe in a standing forward bend after practising diligently for three days. Apart from loving how yoga had miraculously transformed his naturally inflexible body to be more flexible, he was even more grateful to have encountered the wisdom of yoga which healed him from suicidal childhood depression and made him a happier man today. Ever since then, he knew unshakeably in his heart that sharing the infinite light and love of yoga with all would be his life mission and passion in life. Other than yoga, Justin also trained as a Contemporary Dancer and Choreographer with the Hong Kong Academy For Performing Arts.
Justin’s teaching and yogic styles were immensely inspired by Tripsichore Yoga, Universal Yoga and Dharma Yoga. He deeply believes that everyone should practise yoga at his or her own pace as everybody is beautifully unique and all yoga practice is good, as long as we all practise consciously, consistently and compassionately.
Justin’s classes are genuinely encouraging, detailed in explanation and lovingly kind with different variations provided for all levels of practice. He is very creative and smooth in sequencing naturally as he is familiar with the movement of the body due to his professional contemporary dance background. Having trained from a very stiff body and healed from numerous injuries, his class focuses a lot on alignment readjustment and deep relaxation techniques to enhance the overall effectiveness of yoga practice and to establish a higher body awareness which will in turn help the yoga practitioner in advancing, healing, and improving in life.
