Just Face It

Face Yoga at the Mandarin Oriental

Does your face hang low? Does it wobble to and fro?

Before you’re able to tie it in a knot get over to the Face-Val-U class at the Spa at Mandarin Oriental.

In a single session you’ll learn simple techniques to tone and brighten an aging visage.

Face yogi Valeria Georgescu will lead you through a series of effective (if silly) facial exercises, eye squeezes, and posturing moves that increase circulation, tighten facial muscles, and give you exciting new expressions to use on your friends.

She’ll also pass along healthy ways to preserve your skin, including how to rest your head on your pillow, sip from a straw, and even drink champagne (yes, you’re doing it wrong).

The class is also available in the pool for an even more relaxing twist on the exercises.

Thus further untying your pesky knots.
