Yin-Yoga
I began practicing yoga in 1991—long before yoga pants became a thing!
My journey as a yoga teacher started in 2010, and over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of teaching various styles, including Hatha, Yin, Vinyasa Flow, Pre- and Postnatal Yoga, Ashtanga, and Teen Yoga.
My passion and expertise lie particularly in intuitive Hatha, Yin, and Teen Yoga.
Throughout my life, I’ve observed that many of the common health issues we face today—such as weight problems, anxiety, sleep disorders, eating disorders, IBS, and migraines—often stem from stress.
In my experience, this stress arises when our true needs are not aligned with our minds.
my offerings to you
As a highly sensitive person, I have spent much of my life seeking balance between my body and soul.
In our fast-paced and materialistic world, it’s easy to lose sight of what our soul truly craves, instead becoming driven by the mind and a desire to achieve. I discovered yoga as a teenager and found a sense of inner stillness when I allowed myself to truly connect with my body.
However, it took me over 20 years to start listening inwardly and living according to my own needs. For many years, I believed that my worth was tied to my achievements, leading to a life of stress and pressure. There were even periods when I tried to excel in yoga, which turned out to be completely counterproductive.
Of course, it remains a challenge not to succumb to the ego’s temptation to perform, but I’m now aware of this tendency, which makes all the difference.
Focul on soul
In my yoga teaching, I focus on guiding classes according to our true needs (the soul) rather than the urge to perform (the ego).
I have deepened my understanding through training in various practices, including Yin, Hatha, Ashtanga, Rocket, Prenatal & postnatal yoga, Qigong, Reiki, Selfmassage, Breathwork, Soundhelaing and more. Additionally, I have studied at the Psychosynthesis Academy, where I’ve naturally integrated all aspects of human nature into my teaching.
Growing up in Japan, with a family engaged in healing and energy work, has given me a strong foundation in working with energies.
