Chun Yih Tan
https://www.hyperactiv.us/
Chun Yih Tan, a Level 2 Wim Hof Method (WHM) instructor, has led a life fueled by adrenaline and a passion for extreme sports. Over 15 years, he immersed himself in activities like wakeboarding, scuba diving, snowboarding, skydiving, triathlons, and military training. This relentless pursuit of adventure, however, came with a cost. His body started signaling distress through painful swellings, a manifestation of overuse and the need for recovery.
In 2016, Chun Yih discovered the Wim Hof Method, a transformative practice combining breath control, cold exposure, and meditation. This method became a turning point in his life. The consistent practice of WHM significantly reduced his inflammation and provided a newfound sense of balance and healing.
Chun Yih’s commitment to adrenaline sports continued, but in 2018, a serious accident while electric skateboarding resulted in a broken collarbone and rib. Remarkably, he utilized the WHM breathing techniques immediately after surgery and began ice immersions as soon as he was able. His remarkable recovery saw him climbing rocks within weeks and participating in a Wim Hof Masters course in Poland under extreme conditions. This experience further solidified his belief in the method’s power to overcome physical and mental barriers.
As Singapore’s first certified Wim Hof Method instructor since 2019, Chun Yih has been dedicated to sharing this powerful technique with others. His teachings focus on improving immune function, increasing energy and focus, reducing stress, and enhancing cold tolerance. He leads the WHM Fundamentals Workshop in Singapore, bringing this unique practice to a climate where cold exposure is not typical.
Chun Yih’s personal experience with pain management, recovery, and resilience through WHM has been a source of inspiration for many. His journey from managing a high-pressure sales role to becoming a pioneer in the field of wellness and breathwork in Singapore is a story of transformation. He left his corporate career in 2021 to fully commit to his passion for helping others find strength, health, and happiness through the Wim Hof Method. He is the founder of HyperActiv, Singapore’s first and only center dedicated to the Wim Hof Method, offering classes for beginners and experts alike.
Chun Yih represents a bridge between the intense world of adrenaline sports and the healing powers of breathwork and cold exposure. His story is one of listening to the body’s signals, respecting its limits, and finding a path to greater well-being and fulfillment.

Testimonials
Ali Watts
Kirsty Moran: “I have always had an obsession with the scales … never again … my body fat % has decreased from 27.8 to 25 and my muscle mass has increased from 28.5 to 29.7. Bravo Ali Watts to this awesome programme”.
Chris Ho: “She carefully listens and assesses your health ecosystem before prescribing a holistic lifestyle program covering food, supplements, exercise and even sleep”.
Jeff Jones: “Ali emphasized proper form and alignment which helped to boost my confidence with handling kettle bells”.
Cindy Shammall: “She has opened my eyes to the benefits of Vinyasa yoga for athletes and I’ve seen huge improvements in my practice in just three months.”
Peter Shephard: “Ali helped me to be able to run pain-free!”.
Chun Yih Tan
Dana: “Great experience and Chun was very inspiring and informative. Mr. Chun was fantastic, knowledgeable, professional and humble. He helped me to calm down in the water and supported our group beautifully”.
Kunaal Namashivaya: “It was great to learn from Chun Yih. I learned the ‘right’ breathing technique and had the first time tingling feeling, lightheadedness and even a short moment of laughing during breathing”.
Frederic Moraillon: “An interesting experience in breathing and using your mind to resist the effect of cold water. I recommend to anyone who wants to push his or her limits.”.
Paul Sedman: “Very clear and engaging and I found myself totally focused for 4+ hours. I have been practicing (poorly) the method for some months, and this face to face setting just clarified a lot of open questions. The breathing exercises were incredible and I felt amazing after, wanting more. The ice baths were surprisingly easier than I first thought”.
Peter Fisher: “Really well run fundamentals course. It is much more effective to have instruction on the breathing which I’ve tried previously with the app. The cold water immersion was excellent and all in a great group environment. Highly recommend”.
