Toshihiko Kodama
President of Union Yoga Japan, Founder of Union Breath
TriYoga Instructor Breathing Instructor
In 2000, at the age of 20, through a sudden transformation of consciousness, he awakened to breathing exercises and
meditation, and strongly recognized the importance of breathing exercises.
His perception of the world changed drastically, and his way of being and living itself changed fundamentally. Since then, she has made yoga and breathing techniques her life's work, and has been studying and teaching yoga in earnest since 2005. In 2005, she began to study and teach yoga in earnest, systematically learning yoga and breathing techniques at Kaivalyadharma, a yoga school in India.
In 2013, she launched Union Yoga Japan, and in 2019, she moved to Awaji Island and founded Awaji Sun Ashram as a place to study yoga and find my own way of being.
She is committed to living in nature and teaching yoga and breathing techniques in order to advocate a better way of life.
She also conducts breathing classes at elementary schools and universities, aiming to help everyone breathe correctly and live a healthier life.
Her wish is that everyone can breathe comfortably, enjoy the benefits of breathing, and live a healthy life. She believes that if each person's breathing changes, comfort and ease of living will spread, and eventually the world will change for the better.
