Bondi man secures second date with yoga instructor after surviving two-hour chat at Common Supply about mindfulness

HARD YARDS: A Bondi man says he’s looking forward to his second date with a local yoga instructor after enduring a gruelling two-hour conversation about mindfulness at Common Supply café on Campbell Parade.

“I didn’t even know it was possible to discuss breath work for that long,” said 33-year-old Tom Henderson, still visibly shaken but proud.

“I just kept nodding and saying ‘yeah totally’ every few minutes. It seemed to work.”

The yoga instructor, Skye Skase, told DBT she was impressed by Tom’s ability to “stay grounded and present.”

“I’m holding space for that kind of authentic masculine energy. I could tell he was struggling internally but his aura stayed strong, and that’s rare in men from Bondi.”

Tom now faces what he’s calling “the real test”: a 90-minute yin yoga class followed by a silent beach walk.

“I’m not sure I’ll survive another round,” he admitted. “But she said it’s all about surrendering the ego, which I think means I’m paying again.”
