Our Story

In 2016, Anya Rao walked away from a decade in corporate consulting. A transformative 500-hour teacher training in Rishikesh had shown her something she couldn’t unsee: that the practice of yoga — real practice, not just the postures — could fundamentally change how people relate to their bodies, their stress, and their lives. She came home to Singapore and found a sun-drenched second-floor shophouse on Seng Poh Road in Tiong Bahru. The space had original timber beams, louvre windows that caught the morning breeze, and enough room for twelve mats. She called it Stillpoint — after the T.S. Eliot line about the still point of the turning world. Eight years later, Stillpoint has grown to three studios across two floors, a dedicated reformer pilates room, and a team of twelve teachers. But the founding principle remains: small classes, personal attention, and a practice rooted in mindfulness rather than performance.
