He has become a mainstay of the yoga community in the suburb of Eltham, Melbourne: teaching in gyms, community groups, rehabilitation centers and of course, at Grasshopper Yoga Studio.

Yong graduated with a Diploma of Zen Shiatsu at the Ryoho Shiatsu College in Sydney (1995). Has been practicing Shiatsu ever since. Throughout the years working at many work places and at some Department of Human Services in Melbourne, Drug and Rehab Centres and Indigenous communities. Yong started to develop "Relaxation session" at these centers combining group Shiatsu with guided meditation.
