What inspired you to organize an event like this?
We wanted to present a unique outdoor yoga experience that brings people together in a trendy and cool setting: a drop-in yoga session where people can, dance, be immersed in the music, be uplifted and have a great time. Yoga raves are popular in the US, where participants practice yoga in groups of 100 to 400 in large warehouse spaces, in a club setting—but one without drugs, smoking or alcohol. Yoga is the party.

How did you go about organizing it?
We organize monthly outdoor yoga events and partner with yoga and pilates studios, and met our music partners at the Yoga for Water, Yoga for Life event, where they played live music to accompany the yoga session. It was amazing to have 1,500 people up on the roof of the Marina Barrage with us—the Prime Minister was there too! We wanted to try something along those lines, incorporating a more fun, young and trendy aspect to it. Since we also hang out at Tanjong Beach Club we thought, "why not?" and it kicked off from there.

What kind of crowd are you hoping to attract?
Yogis, clubbers, weekend wariors and people interested in trying something new. Bring your coolest yoga pants and singlets!

What other events do you have up your sleeve?
We have a few more smaller monthly events planned this year, but next year there will be some big ones. We like working with other local businesses and partners and will be dishing out new lifestyle and fitness events. Find out more on the In The Loop website.

Yoga Rave Party—a vinyasa yoga session set to electronic music, complete with an afterparty—is on Sep 7, 6:30pm.
