Fly Entertainment artiste and fitness entrepreneur Liv Lo shares how to prep your body and mind for new challenges this year with Davelle Lee
Standing at 1.74m, even if she didn’t already tower over most of the photography crew, Liv’s air of relaxed confidence was enough to dwarf everyone in the studio.The 31-year-old used to be a model, starting her career in Taiwan when she was 18. She took up yoga three years later in 2006, when she moved to Tokyo to pursue a part-time degree in mass communications at Temple University’s Japan Campus.
She tried to continue modelling but found the competition fierce. Seeking to gain an edge in the industry, she turned to yoga to improve her flexibility, posture and balance after having seen how it had benefited Cindy Crawford and Christy Turlington, her role models.
With yoga, Liv was able to effortlessly incorporate beautiful poses into photo shoots. But it didn’t just transform her posture, it transformed her life, too. “Yoga was always there for me,” explained Liv. “If I felt like I needed balance or stress relief, or even if I felt like I was getting fat, I could do it. But more than that, it taught me life lessons.”
In 2012, she became a certified yoga instructor after relocating to Singapore to be with then boyfriend Henry Golding, whom she married in August last year.
Liv has since started an online portal for the yoga community called Stretch City, joined Yoga Movement as an instructor and launched an eponymous Youtube channel dedicated to yoga and fitness. As the new year takes off, we asked Liv to recommend yoga poses you can do throughout 2017 to help your health, body and mind.
