Staff at a popular bakery who reviewed CCTV after a break-in were surprised to find footage of an alleged thief performing a yoga routine in the carpark.
Dressed in head-to-toe tight black clothes, the 44-year-old Richmond woman performed a lengthy series of stretches directly in view of a CCTV camera at 3am on March 17.
An iPad, chef shoes, cleaning products and croissants were allegedly stolen from Phillippa's Bakery headquarters in Richmond, Melbourne during the break-in.
The bakery posted the footage to their Instagram account saying "we were quite surprised when we saw the security footage from a recent break in at our Bakery HQ".
"Seems like yoga is a must before breaking in," the post read.
"A few things were stolen including some croissants which were clearly too tempting for this flexible burglar."
The woman was charged with theft, burglary and going equipped to steal.
She has been bailed to appear in Melbourne Magistrates' Court on May 22.
