Asako learnt Okido Yoga with Saburo Ishii, Peter Masters and Megan White, then Pranayama and Qigong with Isamu Mochizuki. She fell in love with their concepts and techniques which are quite physical and insightful.

Since then, she’s been teaching yoga for more than 10 years in Japan and Australia. She has found that yoga is a personal journey, a way to find your true self through life’s experiences including difficulties when she was younger. Her classes provide a friendly atmosphere and lots of laughter and fun. “I want people to realise how not knowing the body creates possibilities rather than disadvantage, also how that possibility relates to the mind and spirituality being better.“

Asako is also a qualified Aromatherapist successfully treating clients with a variety of conditions.
