Yoga Edition

The appeal of Yoga Edition (by True Group) lies in its range of offerings. On any given week, you can move between strong, sweaty sessions and slower ones, depending on what your body needs.

For days when recovery is the priority, classes such as Restorative Yoga, Gentle Flow, Gentle Yin and Soundbath, and Rest and Restore focus on deep relaxation and mindfulness. At the other end of the spectrum, Vinyasa, Hot Vinyasa, Hot Core and HIIT+Flow offer strength-building, faster-paced practices designed to tone muscles and recharge energy.

For anyone needing relief from muscle tightness or long hours at a desk, classes like Mobility Series, Yoga Stretch, Wheel Yoga and Hips and Back Opening provide targeted stretches to improve flexibility and posture. Other special-focus classes include Aerial Yoga and Wall-Rope Yoga, while intermediate and advanced practitioners can challenge themselves with Arm Balances, Inversions and Backbends.

Reformer Pilates is also offered in small group classes, with options ranging from foundations through to strength-focused and stretch-based sessions. Enthusiasts can follow a clear progression through Reformer Foundations, Power Reformer, Reform+Flow and Sculpt+Stretch Reformer classes.

Experienced instructors guide each session, helping members build strength, flexibility and confidence in their practice. Yoga Edition also runs workshops and overseas retreats for those who want to explore their practice beyond the studio.

Yoga classes in Singapore – 8 different types

Wondering which types of yoga classes in Singapore to try? There are many different types! Some yoga studios in Singapore may offer one style while others may offer multiple styles. But, no matter which style you choose, you’re bound to reap the health benefits of yoga. Here’s a quick guide to different types of yoga.

1. Hatha yoga. Often a gentler class, hatha yoga concentrates on holding asanas (poses), physical alignment and balance. It doesn’t have flow between poses and can also include breathing exercises (pranayama) and meditation.
2. Iyengar yoga. Named after its developer, B.K.S. Iyengar, this is a form of hatha yoga that emphasises detail, precision and alignment to promote strength, mobility and stability.
3. Yin yoga. Targeting the deep connective tissues and the muscle fascia, yin yoga aims to help regulate the flow of energy in the body. Poses are more passive, and mainly done on the floor.
4. Ashtanga yoga. One of the more vigorous styles, Ashtanga yoga includes a series of poses that are each held for just five breaths. To keep up the pace, you do a half sun salutation between poses.
5. Mysore style. This sub-category of Ashtanga yoga is both traditional and safe. It’s taught one-to-one, but practised in a group setting. Students arrive as they please within a three-hour period.
6. Vinyasa flow. Also called flow yoga or dynamic yoga, classes flow from pose to pose without pause, giving students a good workout. It’s a good idea to take a few slower classes first to become familiar with the poses.
7. Kundalini yoga. Perhaps the most comprehensive of yoga traditions, kundalini combines meditation, mantra, asanas and dynamic breathing. It’s a practice that is both physical and spiritual.
8. Bikram yoga. Until you’ve tried this, you haven’t really sweated! In a studio heated to 41°C, 26 poses are performed in the same order each time. Strengthening and stretching, it also facilitates the release of toxins.
