Another bonus is that we were given vouchers for Adidas clothing to pick out to wear for the event. We also went home with an Adidas mat that day. We had fun taking photos on the little demo stages before the event.
I was asked to demonstrate at the Fitmind Adidas event last April, which was held at the Asia World Expo Center. The participants were running a 5k race in support of the Early Psychosis Foundation. I helped to demonstrate on stage for one of the teachers, Chau Kei (Stefanie) who was teaching yoga before the run. It was a great opportunity as it was in front of around 1,000 people. Master Yogananth was also there teaching as well with other members from our studio, Anahata Yoga.

The major earthquake that hit Nepal last April took over 8,000 lives and injured more than 21,000. It was devastating news and everyone around the world came together to help raise money for its beautiful country and people. Here in Hong Kong, I was involved in 3 Nepal charity events. I attended a yoga charity event for Nepal held at my studio, Anahata Yoga. The owner, Master Yogananth, taught a meditation, pranayama class. It was nice being part of the event and helping to raise so much money. There was also a yoga class that I assisted with, held at the pier raising money for Nepal, held by AYC members. A few friends and I also led a yoga/hoop Nepal charity event at Dr. Sun Yat Sen park in Sheung Wan. My friend Emma opened the event, centering our minds on the purpose of the class and how when everyone's kindness comes together, the impact can be huge. She taught yoga hoop for the first part of the class, followed by Laura's vinyasa practice, and ending with my yin practice. We had a great turnout and raised HK$3,000 for Nepal! We went to the Imagine Dragons concert, held at the Asia World Expo, with our neighbors, Mike and Ivana and a few of their friends. It was awesome! They were promoting their new album, Smoke and Mirrors. I personally love both albums. The concert was just fantastic! The concert was held on a Sunday night which was a little strange but luckily I didn't have to wake up early for work. The concerts in Hong Kong are pretty tame so there was no mosh pit for Keith this time. Thank you for all who made it out for Keith's surprise 30th birthday. We had it at an Indian restaurant in Lan Kwai Fung with about 20 friends and then went to the bars after. Keith's ultimate treat is cookies, especially something like a cookie cake or skillet cookie, so I had a cookie cake made for him at a local bakery in Sai Ying Pun. The surprise seemed to work out but I did have to take 'extra' time figuring out what outfit and shoes to wear so that we wouldn't show up too early. Keith was pretty patient. haha |
