Skeletal System (Lower Limbs and Central Axis)



The skeletal system provides structure for our body and its contents such as our organs. Its main role is to bear weight and give shape of our body as it moves through space. Our bones are made of three layers, the periosteum, compact bone and bone marrow. When we have injuries, stress or trauma, tension and torsion could be stored in the bone layers. Embodying our bones helps us release any stress, torquing or blockages within the bone layers to align, integrate and bring aliveness back to our skeletal system. Ultimately, we want to experience balance flow of energy through our bones in embodied movements. 


In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the function of kidneys is associated to our sense of hearing, nails, hair, bones and joints, especially the waist and knees. The kidneys as well as the bladder can be adversely affectedly by a misaligned or poorly supported spine. The resulting poor postural and movement habits can put pressure on these organs. Embodying our skeletal system to align our spine helps us release stress and blockages within the organs. In turn, we can rejuvenate our organs through increased vitality and Qi circulation.  


The workshop will explore 

  • skeletal principles to move effortlessly 
  • Relationship between joints and bones and how they integrate throughout the whole body
  • Identify and correct alignment and movement imbalances 

Dates: 16/11 (Sat) and 17/11 (Sun)

Time: 1 - 5pm

Fees: $249 per session, $469 for both

Registration has closed. 


One session will focus on lower limbs and the other on spine (vertical axis). It is recommended to attend both as back issues can arise from blockages in the lower limbs and vice versa.

In this workshop, you will learn how to play the Tibetan Singing Bowls confidently and the different techniques to apply in various settings. 

Whether you own a single bowl or a set of chakra bowls, this workshop will be useful for you to fully utilise the potential benefits of your singing bowls. If you haven't got a bowl, this workshop will help you decide which type of bowls to buy. The techniques covered can be applied to yourself or on another person/s, pet or plant. The singing bowls can also be used to cleanse space as well as to cleanse and charge crystals. 

No prior experience is necessary, just bring your curiosity and an open mind. Singing bowls, mallets and sticks will be provided for your practice. You are welcomed to bring your own singing bowls too. Come and immerse yourself in the world of Tibetan singing bowls!

In 2018, I have the great privilege of learning to play the Tibetan Singing Bowls personally from Grand Master Shree Krishna Shahi. Since then, I have used the singing bowls in sound healing meditation, therapy, yoga classes, kids workshop and selfcare with great results. 

Dates: 10/11/2024 (Sun)

Time: 12 - 5pm

Fees: $300 (limited to 5 pax)

Registration has closed.

Past Workshops



Fun with Singing Bowls (Parent - Kids) 

In this 2-hour workshop, the parent and child/ren will be introduced to the beautiful sounds and fun ways of playing the Tibetan Singing Bowls. It is a great way to bond with your child/ren as both of you engage in a sensory rich experience to improve self awareness, self-regulation and co-regulation. 

Age of child: 6 years old and above.

Collaboration with Singapore National Library 

Conscious Kid Workshop (Loving Kindness Begins with Me)

This 1.5-hour workshop includes simple mindfulness activities to improve self awareness and mental resilience. It is based on my book, Water Drop Journeys where children will role play the various book characters and also contemplate how their choices and actions would impact themselves, others and the environment.

Muscular System (Upper Limbs)

Many organs in the body are muscular, such as those within the cardiovascular, respiratory, reproductive and digestive systems. These muscles are not normally under voluntary control; their activities are regulated by nervous and chemical stimuli, in response to inner and outer environmental changes. They are called smooth or cardiac (heart) muscle. 

When we say the muscular system we refer to the skeletal muscles. These attach to and move bones, crossing over one or more joints, and they are the primary movers of the body. When embodied, the muscles establish a tensile three-dimensional grid for the balanced support and movement of the skeletal structure by providing the elastic forces that move the bones through space. They provide the dynamic contents of the outer envelope of flesh encompassing the skeletal structure. Through this system we embody our vitality, express our power, and engage in the dialogue of resistance and resolution.  

Muscles, through our nervous system, stores our persona and habitual patterns efficient or otherwise. When not embodied, our muscles can become too flaccid (lack of tone and control) or too stiff (excessive tone) both of which lack power and vitality. Muscles can also become 'stuck' (in spasm or stiffness) in a certain tone due to injury or trauma as our body's own safety mechanism to protect us from further harm. As a result, movements become restricted and pain may ensue. So long as the guarding mechanism is not repatterned, flow and ease of movement in the joint would not be restored. 

This workshop is for you if you would like to learn how to: 
- Increase vitality, strength, flexibility, flow and ease through muscles
- Improve comfort in muscles
- Relieve stiffness, weakness and/or fatigue in muscles
- Move more naturally with greater ease and skill
- Dialogue with muscles and establish a direct relationship with them
- Embody and understand from inner experience how muscles engage in both stillness and action
- Expand awareness through the inherent consciousness of muscles 

It will help you:
- Understand how muscles function in embodied integrated movement
- Change the way you think about and engage with muscles
- Maintain a stable, balanced posture
- Transmit a local force throughout the body via the fascial matrix
- Coordinate the muscle line of force with the spatial integrity of the bones, ligaments and fascia
- Calibrate peripherally the force needed to move against a given resistance

The principles can be applied to any muscle in the body but this workshop focuses on muscles of the upper limbs. The workshop is based on embodied touch and deep listening through our cells (body) to help our tissues release inefficient patterns and habitual holding consciously. Repatterning and re-education will then occur when our brain (central nervous system) register the new efficient pathways of flow in movement and stillness. 

*Fees include notes and an optional one-hour zoom session for Q and A. Details will be confirmed later. 

   
Ligamentous and Fascial System (Lower Limbs)

Ligaments and fascia are connective tissues that guide movements through efficient pathways to balance load bearing through our structure. When ligaments are embodied, joints are aligned and stabilised so that muscles can relax into their optimum dimensions for expressing the full range of motion with clarity and precision. 

Ligaments also suspend the organs within the thoracic and abdominal cavities. They provide alignment and movement of the organs. 

Fascia enables a movement to be experienced and balanced in a global manner throughout our body and structure.   

Conversely, when ligaments and fascia are not embodied, our joints and organs can become immobilised, destabilised and misaligned. That results in pain and/ or reduced mobility. 

Participants will explore how to locate, feel and embody a ligament, joint and fascia through touch.



Endocrine System

The glands of the endocrine system have a profound effect on both physiological functioning and feeling states; they also affect the quality of movement support and expression. Energetically, they connect to specific bones and joints and give support to the spine at related areas. The endocrine glands are closely related to the chakras and act as a link between the organs and the central nervous  system. Chakras are subtle energy centres where energy pathways meet, with the major chakras located along the spine and minor ones in other parts of the body. On the physical level, a tensed endocrine gland can cause constrictions in the surrounding connective tissues and muscles.

Participants will learn how to improve the spinal health through freeing the tensions in the body by embodying the glands and feeling the support of the endocrine system for the spine and the connections to the limbs. Participants will also explore the different crystalline psychophysical states related to the different glands.

Conscious Kid Workshops

Based on Water Drop Journeys, this is a mindfulness-based and nature-themed interactive workshop for children. Formerly known as the Book Reading Workshop, it is designed to cultivate consciousness within every child.

Children get to experience mindfulness-based activities such as listening and playing with Singing Bowls, moving mindfully, paying attention using their different senses and other fun activities that exercise their creative thinking and problem solving skills. Instead of competing against one another, they must practise teamwork to work together and take turns to lead and solve specially designed games and puzzles. There will also be postcard colouring and a mini outdoor scavenger hunt if weather allows.

Workshop and long-term program are available for private, corporate and school settings.

Past Events

Sound Healing Meditation (Sound Bath)

Sound has been used for therapeutic and healing purposes since ancient times. We are magnetic beings surrounded by an energy or electromagnetic (EM) field. When we are healthy, our EM current flows smoothly. Conversely, when there is static or dissonance in our EM field, we would feel 'off' or unwell - dis-ease may arise if that persists. During a Sound Healing Meditation, the coherent vibrations and sound from the musical instruments entrain with our energetic field resulting in the smoothening out of any dissonance and statics. As a result, most people may feel a general sense of relaxation and ease.  

Sound bath sessions are available for private, corporate and school settings.


Corporate Yoga and Wellness Event
