We hug, say hello, and fall into conversation almost immediately. It’s only the second time I’m meeting him, but he remembers more than I expect — that I came to one of his classes last June, that I was there with John, and that it was in Brentford, at the back of a bar where he was hosting an event, called Sip &#38; Sound Healing by the Water. We walk...]]></description><link>https://www.byyenfeng.com/post/from-stage-to-sound-kerry-spark-finds-his-frequency</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a1658f3ce062e4a09f26341</guid><pubDate>Wed, 27 May 2026 02:40:16 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/de8573_426c74e5613548e0a043159ca02e950f~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Yen Feng</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mise en Mat: The Daily Practice of Emmanuel Stroobant]]></title><description><![CDATA[The first thing you notice about Emmanuel Stroobant is that he does not look like a man who cooks for a living. When he rises to greet me in the kitchen of his Sixth Avenue home, he is wearing a fitted black V-neck T-shirt and loose linen trousers. His hair is cropped short, flecked with silver. His body is compact and muscular, the body of a former boxer — broad shoulders, thick in the torso, built more for a ring than a restaurant. There is a roughness to him, a raw masculinity that feels...]]></description><link>https://www.byyenfeng.com/post/mise-en-mat-the-daily-practice-of-emmanuel-stroobant</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69d55d1c10427b2b314a0ab8</guid><pubDate>Tue, 07 Apr 2026 19:40:24 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/de8573_15f6ae2c70314c82af25f204bb4ca7fb~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Yen Feng</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Upside Down, Inside Out: Getting to Know the Obsessive Practice of Victor Chau]]></title><description><![CDATA[Victor Chau is the kind of yoga teacher other yoga teachers look up to. Tall, lean, and tanned, he meets me as the lift opens to his floor in an apartment in Orchard Road. His hair is neatly combed, posture relaxed but upright. He greets me with the practised warmth of someone used to being at the front of a room. It’s 3pm in the afternoon, and his home is quiet, spacious, filled with natural light. During the interview, we sit outside on his balcony that overlooks the back of the street’s...]]></description><link>https://www.byyenfeng.com/post/upside-down-inside-out-getting-to-know-the-obsessive-practice-of-victor-chau</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69d55ab833362686b5d6550d</guid><pubDate>Tue, 07 Apr 2026 19:30:07 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/de8573_100bffc330864c8e994f22dd36204aee~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Yen Feng</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[From Rishikesh to Sathorn: Sandeep Singh on Yoga’s Roots &#38; its Future]]></title><description><![CDATA[Sandeep Singh arrives for our interview the way he arrives for class: already in uniform. A tank top, loose pants, and a kind of calm readiness that suggests the day has been running long before I pressed record. We’re 32 floors up at Sathorn Nakhon Tower, in a lounge that feels almost too bright—Bangkok’s morning light pouring through the studio’s large windows, making everything look photoshoot-ready. It’s an oddly fitting setting for a conversation about yoga in 2026: elevated, polished, a...]]></description><link>https://www.byyenfeng.com/post/from-rishikesh-to-sathorn-sandeep-singh-on-yoga-s-roots-its-future</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69d556e810427b2b3149fc43</guid><pubDate>Tue, 07 Apr 2026 19:16:43 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/de8573_f1696f1ebce54b5487e80a0d4cb023c7~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_727,h_742,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Yen Feng</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Back to Basics: How Ki Yoga is Rethinking Teacher Training in Singapore]]></title><description><![CDATA[On audition days for yoga teachers at Ki Yoga in Singapore, the instructions are always the same.
