Happy New Year Minna-San!  I’ve just arrived back in Japan last week.  My time at home was really wonderful but I’m glad and excited to be back in Japan.  I am  really looking forward to a new year of continuing classes, both at previous locations and new ones as well.

I hope everyone was able to maintain a little bit of their personal practice during the holidays.  I know, however, that it can be very difficult to maintain a consistent personal practice.  All of the spiritual traditions of the past emphasized the importance of community in sustaining a spiritual practice.  Not only does it provide motivation and inspiration to practice but creates lasting and deep relationships with those on the same path. I humbly hope that our weekly classes can provide both inspiration for practicing yoga as well as a feel of community.

Classes are held every Monday and Thursday from 19:30 – 21:00 at the Kobe Art Village Center. Your first class will be FREE and classes after that will be ¥1200. Mats will be available for rental @ ¥300 or you are welcome to bring your own.
