Yoga is my passion. When I step on my mat, I  leave outside everything that bothers me and focus in myself and the inner nature. For me, yoga can lead to serenity, well-being and inspiration. Yoga allows me to soften my chitta Vritti “mind chatter”, and find my inner self. In yoga, we focus on tuning in on a physical level, looking closely at the alignment of the body and mind. I love to keep reminding myself of this on and off the mat, and I bring this concept into my daily life and also my teachings. I encourage my students to be the alchemist of their own practices. I teach several styles of yoga: Hatha Yoga, Yin, Restorative, Slow Vinyasa, Yin/Yang, Yoga for Cancer Survivorship, and trauma healing through yoga. In my classes, I often combine these skills and share what I have learned through my teaching path and life experience.

I am trained as a nurse in Japan, and my journey to practice yoga also began in Japan, where I received my first certification as a Hatha-Yoga instructor. After I came to the U.S., I started to dedicate myself and deepen my yoga skills as a student and a teacher. As I continued practicing, I determined that yoga is one of my life purposes.

I also have been practicing Reiki treatment for about 5 years. In 2019 I received  Reiki Certificate. I am open minded and optimistic. I believe that all of the things I have now is because I have applied myself  and tried to improve and change my life. My goal in life and desire is "Helping people to Live with Joy." I specialize in helping individuals learn to use Yoga as a way of improving their life, as well as a way to recover from a traumatic experiences. My teaching is based on my own  experience and learning how to heal myself from trauma and how I healed my "Inner Child" and became a strong confident individual.
