Fitness Classes in Singapore
Maybe you have achieved your dream body at this point, maybe you haven’t. But health and fitness is more a long-term lifestyle than a fixed goal.
For this October’s curation of free fitness events, there is a surge of mindfulness and yoga-type activities. We often disregard mental health for physical health, but now is a good chance to focus on taking care of our minds alongside our bodies.
