My journey began when I was just six years old. Back then, I was just another little kid growing up on a rubber plantation in North Malaysia. I was one of the smallest kids in school and used to get beaten. A year or so later after moving to Kuala Lumpur, the capital city of Malaysia, I found myself in my first martial arts class. It wasn’t long before my dedication and natural talent was acknowledged by my coach. I very quickly evolved in the sport, achieving my black belt by just twelve years of age. From there, I was selected to go on to compete Nationally, and soon after began training for the 2000 Olympics in Sydney.

Incidentally, looking around at my peers I realised that there was no longer a future in the sport for me. I was being pulled to do something intellectual, something that worked my brain and engaged my mind

I chose to study Computing Science at a university overseas in Australia. Fast forward to the third year of my degree, and I began working in the corporate world.

It was only when I started my career in the corporate world that I discovered stress. Hearing about yoga and meditation and how it could help me manage the pressures of living in a highly stressful corporate job, I found a local meditation group and began meditating with them weekly. I soon found himself in my first yoga class, where I got hooked. I became fascinated by how yoga, meditation and the practices of personal transformation not only helped me to heal my body from old injuries sustained in my previous elite athlete career but also how they centered my mind and spirit.

A decade later, I left my corporate career feeling empty and unsure of what to do next. I traveled to London and began teaching yoga - at first, just to a small group of my friends. Beginning from scratch I built one of London’s leading studios and yoga communities — Hot Power Yoga.

After ten years of teaching yoga globally, Hot Power Yoga became the foundation for my life-transforming yoga teacher training programs, mentoring programs, workshops, and classes in London. Of course, in addition to the ongoing commitment to my own personal and professional growth.

My passionate commitment saw me become one of UK's leading yoga teachers. I am now a world-class trainer of yoga teachers, training individuals across the globe to awaken themselves to the powerful teachers within. I have had the honour and privilege to have mentored and trained several hundred teachers globally to bring out the best in their students, by beginning the transformation with themselves first. I have also worked closely with National gym chains and Premier League football clubs within the UK to train, teach and motivate their best.

Delving into transformation, my powerful evolution and passion-driven journey led me to discover my ‘why’ and purpose - to open hearts and awaken minds through inner-work.

And out of all this, AWAKEN was born. A series of courses designed to help you achieve the life you’ve always dreamt of, your epic and awakened life.

Whether it’s growing in your personal life and cultivating more positive relationships, shifting your career to something more meaningful, fulfilling your passions and deepest desires, breaking away from that which is holding you back from harnessing your full potential, or simply embracing the profound capacity of personal transformation, I am confident that my expertise, passion, and commitment might be just what you need to support, guide and challenge you to change your life and become the best version of yourself.
