Singapore is a beautiful place to come to your senses, and it offers fantastic atmosphere for those who are taking some time away to rejuvenate the body, mind, and spirit. There is a gorgeous tropical climate here, and the spectacular combination of urban culture and natural splendor makes for a very lively and energetic cosmopolitan feel. This unique combination certainly contributes to the loveliness of our Singapore spa resorts, but there are many other factors that help make it a perfect setting for your spa vacation. Singapore is a rich culture that combines aspects from the Malay, Chinese, and Indian traditions. Having been a port for so long, it has a history of cultural contact, and takes the best of everything to recreate it in a new way.
You’ll enjoy the multiple methods used in our spas, and there are some spectacular combinations of both Eastern and Western traditions. The result is an uncanny sense of balance, one that comes when the right relationship to the body, to exercise, and to food, is attained. Of course, a short vacation might not set everything right, but it will jump start your senses to head in the right direction. At some spas, they even offer yoga classes. Singapore is a wonderful place to discover, or re-connect, with a yoga practice, because there are many types that are practiced and offered here.
Yoga is extremely beneficial, and has even been recognized by the Ministry of Defence in Singapore for its positive effects on health. It helps with posture, circulation, breathing, and general well-being, among many other benefits. There are many different kinds of yoga, and generally speaking, classes will offer one of four types. Hatha is the integration of breathing with postures, Ashtanga is related to the heart, Vinyasa focuses on flow and graceful transition from one posture to another, and Iyengar is focused on attaining correct anatomical alignment. There are beginning, intermediate, and advanced classes that are offered in Singapore, too, and it’s worth looking into ahead of time if this is something you want for your own health program.
