ASIA’S LARGEST OUTDOOR YOGA CLASS #OMTOGETHERHK COMING TO HONG KONG ON 14 SEPTEMBER 2014 #OmTogetherHK, the largest outdoor community yoga class, will take place during the Green Summer Festival at Central Harbourfront Event Space on 14 September 2014. That day only, Hong Kong will see Asia’s largest outdoor community yoga class – #OmTogetherHK. Calling out to everyone from hard-core to newbie yoga practitioners, old and young alike, yoga studios and yoga-friendly brands, #OmTogetherHK aims to unite hundreds of Hong Kong people to come together and make history at the Central Harbourfront Event Space and practise yoga in the heart of Central. Notably two of the most renowned yoga teachers in Hong Kong, Dr. Bryan Lau and Claudia Whitney, will join forces at the very first #OmTogetherHK. Organized by Stretch City Hong Kong, Asia's Yoga Lifestyle Website, there will be live-streaming of the event (powered by Livestream) on their website (hk.stretchcity.com), allowing everyone from across the world to witness this historical event, marking Hong Kong as the new Yoga capital in Asia. The two-hour yoga session will be fuelled with music by Jason Nogoy of Crafthouse. Miko Bantigue of Stretch City Hong Kong CE-“Om” noted, "Our goal is to place Hong Kong on the map as a centre for yoga and healthy-living in Asia. We're inviting all yoga practitioners and their friends, yoga studios and yoga-friendly brands to sweat and stretch it out together for the greater good of yoga-for-all." Yoga is one of the fastest growing segments in the fitness industry, with up to 250 million practitioners worldwide and spending in this industry increasing at 84% YOY. With Asia as the new centre of action, and Hong Kong being the key piece of the puzzle, #OmTogetherHK provides a unique opportunity to the entire yoga community to expand, as well as raising awareness among the public of the key to healthy lifestyle – to stretch, to live life and love life! Stretch City Stretch City is an online platform for all things yoga, including listings and reviews for yoga studios, yoga events, yoga retreats, healthy food, yoga stores and more in Singapore, Hong Kong, and soon-to-be Shanghai. Founded by international model and Fly Entertainment artiste, Liv Lo, Stretch City was first conceptualized upon her thrilling discovery of the abundance of healthy living in Singapore, but one which also had a disconnect from its healthful citizens. Liv went on to create a team with yoga instructor Yun Ng and Hong Kong partner Michael Bantigue to build an engaging online one-stop platform to connect the yoga community. Stretch City also produces monthly events and manages brand launches all over Asia, with Stretch Saturday being one of the latest creations. ​- Please bring your own mats, water, and props.
