BlogPress & An Updog MasterChef on the Mat at Pure!

I recently downloaded (and actually paid for) the iPhone BlogPress App and I am currently testing it out. I hope that it will help me blog more regularly.

I have quite a bit to blog about and I will need to find the time to do so, but just quickly... Guess who I spied with my little eye at Tryphena's 5.30 pm Hot Hatha 1 class yesterday at Pure (Ngee Ann City), stretching out his tight hamstrings.

Drum role please....

None other than bleached blond celebrity MasterChef Emmanuel Stroobant.



I was surprised to see him and at first skeptical - but I memorized his tattoos and later cross-checked these online.

I knew that being an Art History Major would come in useful :P ! Haha.

Don't get any dirty ideas though. We can all get a glimpse of Emmanuel's tattoos online at www.updog-studio.com, the website for Updog Studio, a hot yoga studio based at East Coast Parkway's Big Splash that is part of the Emmanuel Stroobant Group.



Boy is he expanding! From place mats to yoga mats!

Here is a glimpse of his "empire". I never knew! Picotin and Brusselsprouts too?! Wow.

He has his own website! www.emmanuelstroobant.com

I learnt about Updog studio from a friend that practices there, but I've personally never tried the studio. Let me know if you have! I'm always curious about new studios and styles.

I was then again reminded of the studio by Reebonz City, which is currently hosting an Updog Studio bargain online.

I did contemplate it, I like trying new studios, but the location is a little out of the way for me and I am trying to engage in the impossible act of saving money :P.

I did think that it was an incredible coincidence that I was just a few mats away from him in class. If anything I do think that they have been pretty good at marketing themselves!

So there you go. A little tiny bit of spice added to my day!

Namaste to all and keep sweating it out on the mat Emmanuel!
