in movement.
Hello everyone! My name is Yue Tong, a former contemporary dancer who loves movement & to create. My love for movement & music started when I was little. To me, there is no greater feeling than being present, moving in tune with good music - oh how liberating it is to be experiencing that in life.
At the age of 16, I moved to New York City to pursue my studies in dance, and continued my studies in Bachelor of Arts (Hons) at the London Contemporary Dance School in the UK. Being surrounded by athletes, as well as experiencing the intensity the body goes through in trainings and performances, I discovered my journey in Pilates and Gyrokinesis® as ways of body conditioning and maintenance.
As a former dancer with repeated injuries, I've learnt and am still learning the complexity of one’s body; of how we can move efficiently and sustain the wellness of our body. Movement helps me to stay connected in the mind and body; enables me to move freely; while striving for a more pain-free yet energised body. That to me, is luxury.
After trying several movement methods, GYROTONIC® stood out and has influenced me greatly - not just physically, but also holistically. This particular system keeps me centered, connected, grounded, strong while unlocking great sensations within the mind and body. This practice of movement and breath creates calmness and clarity from the inside out.
My intention through my classes is for people to discover consciousness & sensations within their mind and body - finding awareness, balance, alignment and to feel rejuvenated!
