Coffee Lam defends doing headstand during pregnancy

26 Sep – Former TVB actress Coffee Lam recently defended herself over the backlash she received for doing a yoga pose deemed dangerous by netizens.

As reported on Mingpao, the former actress who is currently eight months pregnant with her first baby, recently uploaded a photo of her doing the Sirasana pose (also known as the headstand), in which the body is held upright supported by the forearms, while the crown of the head rests lightly on the floor.

After receiving multiple negative comments from netizens who claimed that she was endangering her unborn baby with the pose, she took to social media to address the issue, saying that it was a yoga exercise that she does every day before and after pregnancy.

"I have ten years of experience doing it, and I can do it as stable as a normal person," she said.

Coffee also stated that as a yoga instructor, she knows what is good for her, and that she has even cut her yoga exercises by half when she found out that she was pregnant.
