Kenneth Seow, Zachary Lee and Wensen Teh were brought together as much by chance as their shared interest in a form of fitness training called calisthenics. Yes, those deceptively simple gymnastic exercises that many of us were taught incorrectly in primary school. But which, when done correctly, can help us to achieve bodily fitness, strength, and grace of movement. This month, the three are launching Common Ground, a local organisation that specialises in outdoor calisthenic training, boot camp style.
How did you guys come together?
Wensen (WS): We met each other individually, in different settings, and at different times. But the circumstances always involved calisthenics – it’s what we have all been quite serious about.
Kenneth (K): It was from our shared passion. I had wanted to find a group to work out with and learn from, so that we could all progress together. Everyone has their own preference for how they achieve fitness. We happen to like and believe in calisthenics.
How did you guys come up with the idea for Common Ground?
