TAKE A CLASS

Hom Yoga at Orchard Central

‘Zoom yoga’ was possibly one of the most popular home-based workouts last year. Yoga can be practised in many ways, from the traditional methods to more modern interpretations, so chances are, you’ll be able to find one that works for you. 

 

Hom Yoga offers over a dozen types of classes, ranging from classical Vinyasa to a high-energy Yoga Bootcamp that incorporates elements of HIIT, body weight exercises as well as yoga fundamentals. It even has special classes for children aged 4 to 6 and 7 to 11! You can take the classes in-studio (safe management restrictions apply) or join an online class. Visit Hom Yoga at Orchard Central #06-13 or https://homyoga.com to learn more.


Lotus Yoga at Bijou

At Lotus Yoga, the classes are designed by two highly-qualified co-founders: Teacher Corinna, who won gold medals at the Everest National Yoga Sports (India) Championship and the 2nd Singapore National Yoga Championship in Yogasana, and Master Monesh, who holds a Bachelor of Yogic Science (Yoga Therapy) and is currently pursuing his Master of Yogic Science.

 

To help more people benefit from regular yoga practice, Lotus Yoga is now offering 1-for-1 yoga trial classes, valid until 30 June. Pick any two from over 40 classes a week and indicate your preference to take them in-studio or online. You can also gear up for practice at home with Lotus Yoga’s selection of yoga accessories and props, like mats, blocks, straps and knee pads. For an additional 20% off sale prices, flash this article! Promotion runs from 15 June to 30 August and terms & conditions apply. Contact Lotus Yoga via WhatsApp to 9621 4707 for more information. Visit Lotus Yoga at Bijou #01-03 or https://lotusyogasg.com to learn more.


UFIT Clinic at Orchard Central
If you prefer to change up your home fitness routine, UFIT Clinic offers both high-intensity classes like BURN for a heart-pumping experience and the ever-popular interval training as well as low-intensity ones like BUILD for full-body strength training and Yoga. These are now available as virtual classes over Zoom and typically runs 30 to 45 minutes.

 

As a new customer, you can get your first class free! Book now at https://www.ufit.com.sg/virtual-classes. Visit UFIT Clinic at Orchard Central #06-11.

 

GEAR UP AT HOME


MMA In-Style at Orchard Central

Martial arts training is an excellent full-body workout that will get your heart pumping while building strength and endurance. Get the right uniform, protective equipment and even a grappling dummy from MMA In-Style, which is known for its wide collection of Brazilian Jujitsu, Muay Thai and Boxing gear. Consider the Kick Pads + Focus Mitts Set if you’re looking to work on your techniques, strength and speed at home. Lightweight with extra-thick layered foam for protection, it’s suitable even for children and amateurs.

 

From now until 30 June, shopFarEast members enjoy an exclusive 5% discount and free delivery on all purchases. Bulky delivery fees apply for larger items like punching bags, mats and grappling dummies. Place your orders by calling 8751 3191 or WhatsApp to 8742 1532. MMA In-Style is located at Orchard Central #06-24.


Puma Outlet Store at West Coast Plaza

Even if you’re exercising at home, it’s important to be wearing the right outfit! Aesthetics aside, the cotton tees that we like to lounge in at home aren’t the most suitable for workouts. Unlike moisture-wicking activewear, cotton tends to absorb sweat, which could make you feel uncomfortable. You could end up ruining your favourite tee with sweat stains too. For a good selection of activewear and sports shoes, check out Puma Outlet Store. 

 

From now until 30 June, enjoy 20% off with a minimum purchase of three items. Visit Puma Outlet Store at West Coast Plaza #B1-26.

New Balance Outlet Store at West Coast Plaza

Another great option for affordably-priced activewear and sports shoes is New Balance. Unless you’re doing mat work like yoga at home, it’s best not to go at it barefooted. A good pair of sports shoes will help cushion the impact on your feet, legs and body, which could otherwise lead to injury. New Balance’s Fresh Foam collection, like the 880v10 for men ($150) and 1080v10 for women ($180), are great options. Complete the outfit with the Accelerate Short Sleeve shirt ($35) and Core Run shorts ($39) for men and the Sports Colour-Blocked Bra ($39), Core Revitalised Tank ($25) and Core Run shorts ($39) for women.

 

New Balance Outlet Store’s End of Season sale, happening now until 4 July 2021, you can buy any two selected items at 30% offPromotion excludes last pair, clearance, and Liverpool Fan Club items. Visit New Balance Outlet Store at West Coast Plaza #B1-30.


ArmourUP Asia at Orchard Central

If your fitness regime is putting your muscles to the test and you’re waking up with aches and soreness, a massage gun could help. The lightweight, handheld device uses percussive (or vibration) therapy to offer relief and is great for loosening tension, especially in the neck, back and shoulders, from long work-from-home hours. 

 

ArmourUP Asia is offering the Flow MINI 4-speed massage gun, complete with four head attachments, carrying pouch and two-year warranty, for just $249. For details, contact ArmourUP Asia via WhatsApp to 9772 2097. Visit ArmourUP Asia at Orchard Central #06-23 or www.armourupasia.com.

 

FUEL YOUR REGIME

Besides exercising right, it’s also important to eat right! Take your pick from this menu of healthy food and drink choices, all available for takeaway.


Nature’s Nutrition at Far East Square

Your intake matters, so take a closer look at your diet when planning your home fitness regime. Consider replacing rice with quinoa, for a low-carb, high-protein meal. Quinoa, while technically a seed, can be prepared and eaten like a grain. Not only is it a complete protein, quinoa is also gluten-free and high in fibre and minerals like iron, magnesium and zinc.

 

Swing by Nature’s Nutrition for freshly-made quinoa bowls and complete your meal with Housemade Kombucha for just $1 (U.P.$3)! Visit Nature’s Nutrition at Far East Square 137 Amoy Street #01-04.


Mission Juice at Icon Village

An easy way to add a nutritional boost to your diet is by drinking up. Cold-pressed juices and nutmilks are packed with tons of enzymes and nutrients — and are delicious too! If you don’t have a slow juicer at home, Mission Juice has you covered. Their juice sets are specially designed and made to order to meet your body’s daily essential intake of nutrients and vitamins. In addition to juices, Mission Juice also offers all-natural nutmilks, frozen yogurt, and smoothies.

 

Get 10% off your total bill for standard, retail-priced items. You can also opt for their 20-bottle package and get two free deliveries worth $30! Visit Mission Juice at Icon Village #01-29.


Wonder Juice at Square 2

You can also get your juice fix from Wonder Juice at Square 2. The brand uses only the freshest ingredients, without water or sugar, to ensure that every bottle is packed with nutrients. Wonder Juice also offers fruit cuts and an avocado series that’s worth trying! Their avocado shakes are deliciously thick and creamy and come in a variety of flavours (Avocado Spinach Shake, anyone?).

 

Enjoy 20% off with a minimum spend of $20. Visit Wonder Juice at Square 2 B1-128.

 

nomVnom Xpress at Woods Square

There are many reasons why people choose a vegan diet—whether to reduce environmental impact, for ethical considerations, or for the purported health benefits. nomVnom Xpress adds one more reason to that list: it’s just yummy! Actually, make that two reasons, because nomVnom Xpress offers what they call ‘the best of both worlds’: vegan burgers and sides from nomVnom and vegan bubble tea from Mong Cha Cha 梦茶茶! The latter is Singapore's first vegan bubble tea café that serves 100% plant-based and freshly-brewed teas made with organic soy milk, housemade organic oat milk and black sugar boba pearls. 

 

Enjoy 10% off your total bill when you Bring Your Own Packaging for your orders. Plus, make it a meal (1 main + 1 side + 1 drink) and get another $2 off! Visit nomVnom Xpress at Woods Square #01-06.


Real Food at Orchard Central

If you want to know exactly what you’re putting in your body, check out Real Food. The folks behind the modern vegetarian restaurant believe that we are what we eat, so every dish on their menu clearly spells out the macronutrient levels: by carbohydrates, fat, protein! Protein has higher satiety levels than carbohydrates and helps with muscle gain, which makes it popular with health-conscious eaters.

 

Real Food is now offering 20% off dishes that contain 20g of protein or more. Visit Real Food at Orchard Central #02-17.
