K-pop icon Lee Hyo-ri has directly addressed public inquiries about her yoga studio, emphasizing an open and welcoming philosophy.

In a recent social media post, Lee Hyo-ri shared her thoughts on frequently asked questions regarding her yoga classes. She responded to concerns about flexibility and body type by stating, “Yes, you can. A big welcome awaits.” This message aims to assure individuals that no prior experience or specific physical condition is a barrier to joining.

She further clarified that beginners are welcome, and latecomers can join as long as they arrive before the class concludes. Lee Hyo-ri also confirmed that pregnant individuals can participate, with only a few specific poses being off-limits.

A particularly heartwarming moment came when a netizen shared their hesitation about group yoga due to a past embarrassing incident involving flatulence. Lee Hyo-ri responded with a reassuring “Farting is okay,” showcasing her broad understanding and creating a lighthearted atmosphere. She also shared glimpses of her spacious yoga studio, hoping to encourage more people to embrace yoga.

Having operated a yoga studio in Jeju since 2016, Lee Hyo-ri recently launched her new studio, ‘Ananda,’ in Seoul. During an appearance on her husband Lee Sang-soon’s radio show, she admitted, “Opening a yoga studio in Seoul feels different. I started yesterday and have taught four classes so far. I’d forgotten some things because it’s been a while. I was flustered about what to teach.” She added, “It would be great if people come to see Lee Hyo-ri and then realize yoga is charming, but it would be even better if they register at a local yoga studio in the neighborhood after visiting here.”

Lee Hyo-ri has been actively involved in yoga, operating a studio in Jeju since 2016 and recently opening 'Ananda' in Seoul. Her dedication extends beyond personal practice, aiming to share the benefits of yoga with a wider audience. She continues her career as a singer and is married to musician Lee Sang-soon.
