Hot 26: Discipline & Awareness with Cherlene Lim

What began as a casual trial over a decade ago quickly evolved into a 30-day hot yoga challenge, then an all-consuming obsession — and eventually, a quiet way of being. Yoga did not change her Cherlene’s in the dramatic way others often describe. Instead, it seeped in slowly, like water finding its way through the smallest cracks, gradually reshaping her from within.
Today, yoga remains the anchor that grounds her through life’s ebbs and flows. Her classes mirror her personal journey on the mat, offering insights into how seemingly opposing elements can find balance. While she delivers dynamic, energizing practices, she is also trained in Yin Yoga, and brings a functional, anatomy-informed approach to every session. Effectively bilingual in Mandarin and English, she integrates both languages in her teaching to make yoga accessible and nuanced for a wider range of students.

Hot26 stripped to its essentials. Discipline. Awareness. Foundation.
