Interview with Going Places Magazine

We recently gave an interview to Malaysia Airlines’ inflight magazine, Going Places. In it we spoke about SURFSET (of course), bringing SURFSET Fitness to Singapore, the benefits, and the types of classes. We thought it was a great way to cover some of the basic questions we frequently get from people, the press, and inquisitive bystanders. Here’s the full transcript.

For fitness and nutrition, we always preach the keyword – moderation. However, some days it’s good to turn things up a notch and bring things into the extreme.

That’s exactly what we’re going for on the 26th of December, 2015 – BACK TO BACK BURNS! It’s a promotional day where we will run two full-session classes back to back, starting with Balance for 45 minutes, and continuing with Core or Sweat for another 45 minutes! Here’s the deal: this will only count as a single session in your package.

It’ll be the day after Christmas, so it’s going to be perfect for burning off all that Christmas eating and drinking revelry. A superb way to get yourself into shape for making New Year’s resolutions, if you ask us.

Soulscape Yoga Festival - Dream Love Live Joy badges

SURFSET Fitness at Soulscape 2015

We came, we saw, we did yoga poses on our boards. It was an absolutely fantastic day with the haze in remission and the sun nice and bright on the beach. Soulscape 2015 was held early today, and it was early today when we dragged our boards over to Tanjong Beach at Sentosa to join in the fun and festivities of this yoga event.

It’s not our first time at Soulscape. We were also here for Soulscape 2014 and we had a great time, so, we thought, let’s do it again!

Surfset Get on board

New SURFSET Fitness Flyers

Have you seen our newest Surfset flyers with our new tagline?

SURFSET fitness Singapore challenge lean muscle building and core training

Yep, everything is harder on the board. Or for the Instagram folks, you may also say #harderontheboard. As you can see, it features our instructor Shuyi in a seemingly impossible pose atop the board. Sometimes, the problem with our instructors is that their level of skills just makes everything look so easy. I can assure you – it’s not. Come try it out in our studio today!

SURFSET Challenge Poses September 2015

It’s September! *cue Green Day

But don’t go sleeping yet! Sleep is important for overall well-being, and we really do love a good night’s sleep, but to sleep an entire month just seems like a ludicrous notion. There are so many things to do! So many sights to see! So many things to get challenged by!

This month’s challenge poses are officially seeking challengers! Warriors and triangles, to be exact.

Yoga pose challenge drawing on whiteboard - Warrior I, Warrior III, Triangle pose

These yoga poses aren’t that complicated, but remember that everything is harder on the board. Read more

Soulscape Yoga Music Dance 2015 Festival

Do Yoga with SURFSET Fitness at Soulscape – Upcoming event: 12 Sep 2015

Event over!

This event is over! To see what went on during the event, check our event post!

It’s the new, 2015 version of our favourite Yoga event! Favourite because it’s at the beach, and also because we had such a blast at Soulscape 2014 last year! After having such a great time last year, we couldn’t say no to bringing our SURFSET Fitness boards down to Sentosa again this year.

This year’s event features an even wider line up of yoga names, or Tribal Leaders as they like to call it. There’s Cristi Christensen, Daniel Rojas, Amanda Koh, Theresa Shan, just to name a few. Expect music and sound from prominent names like DJ Doopz and Clara Chua. And it’s not just a yoga event – there will be plenty of other activities such as healing, dance, and of course, SURFSET! We’re listed in the page – see here!

Once again, we’ll be having a set of challenge yoga poses for you to attempt on our board – they range from the simple tree pose to the harder crow pose. We’ll be with you, so fret not if you can’t find your footing – it’s harder on the board. But not impossible, as our instructor Shuyi proves:

Yep, looks like she’s flying, just like a graceful crow. Read more
