05 - With guest Pamela Song

Pamela Song joins us this episode to talk about the journey of self acceptance, finding her own voice and how she helps others do the same!

Pam is a Vocal Coach who founded Emberays (Embrace) Vocals from the little red dot in Singapore. In the field of vocal pedagogy, coaching and performing arts, she found her calling to help people gain a better understanding of their body and how to utilise and maximise their voice through vocal coaching.

With a specific focus on vocal health and performance, she has supported and coached many to overcome their vocal issues. Centred around a holistic approach of the mind, body and spirit, she believes that everyone has the right to vocal freedom and should have the chance to develop a healthy relationship with their own voice because their voice is not only important to yourself but the people that depend on you.

Her mission is to empower her clients with the tools to utilise & maximise their voice. In partnership, craft an intentional vocal brand that effortlessly communicates their unique vibe that will resonate with their audience.

01 - With guest Emmy Chahal

This episode we’re speaking with Crying on my yoga mat’s FIRST guest, Emmy Chahal!

Emmy was introduced to yoga as a child through her grandmother and mother, and was lucky to grow up practicing kundalini and restorative yoga. Her ancestors are from the north of India and the practice of yoga connects her deeply to her heritage. She has been teaching yoga since 2012 in a variety of settings internationally (universities, schools, studios, corporate and privately) and is particularly interested in: the healing potential of yoga, incorporating trauma-informed approaches, decolonization, and embodied pedagogy. Emmy holds a BA in Cultural Studies, minor in Gender and Women’s Studies; and has previously worked in schools as a violence prevention workshop facilitator. Emmy has also conducted original research at UBC about how yoga can be integrated into the university classroom. Emmy’s passion lies in educating about how yoga is a site for intergenerational healing through the lens of cultural awareness training. As a South Asian woman working in the North American yoga industry, her voice is dedicated to sharing the complexities of social inequity, decolonization, and avoiding cultural appropriation. Emmy seeks to help others understand their role in dismantling old systems of power and unpacking how privilege operates in the yoga world – and how we can build new ways to be as inclusive, just, and equitable as possible.
