As a place where you can always come back to, we welcome everyone who works hard every day.
We invite you to experience “letting go of your goals” and “time spent doing nothing on purpose,”

Sitting in a chair, holding chopsticks, climbing stairs, having a conversation, doing exercises, and so on
It is how we use our bodies and minds in these everyday moments that shapes our charm and way of life,
By taking a moment to “be still and quiet,”
the time spent reconnecting with your natural, free body and your true self is akin to Zen or meditation.
Through practice, you’ll discover new possibilities,
and my work is to help each of you unleash the vitality that resides within.

I came to realize the importance of breathing through core function improvement and self-maintenance guidance.
☆ I discovered Muscle Adjustment Yoga and resonated with its holistic approach to the body and mind.
Conscious breathing begins with using your sensory perception to feel the bones and muscles that cannot be seen with the naked eye.
The first step toward turning your attention inward.

Representative of Union Yoga Japan; Founder of Union Breath;
; TriYoga Instructor and Breathing Technique Instructor
In 2000, at the age of 20, I experienced a sudden shift in consciousness that awakened me to breathing techniques and
meditation, leading me to deeply recognize the importance of breathing.
My previous perception of the world changed completely, and my very way of being and living transformed from the ground up.
Since then, I have dedicated my life’s work to yoga and breathing techniques.
In 2005, I began studying and teaching yoga in earnest.
I systematically mastered yoga and breathing techniques at the yoga school Kaivalyadhama in India.
In 2013, I launched Union Yoga Japan and began my activities. In 2019, I moved to Awaji Island,
and founded Awaji Sun Ashram as a place to study yoga and discover my true self.
To advocate for a better way of life, I immerse myself in nature and teach yoga and breathing techniques.
With the goal of helping everyone breathe correctly and lead healthier lives, I conduct breathing classes at elementary schools and universities.
My wish is for everyone to breathe comfortably, fully enjoy the benefits of breathing, and lead healthy lives.
I believe that if each person’s breathing changes, a sense of comfort and ease will spread, ultimately leading the world to change for the better.
