What Clients Think

Everyone is unique. Each individual requires a tailor made approach according to their life experiences.

Yuko manages to offer a clever mix of gentleness and rigor by putting breathing at the heart of the practice, it allowed me to transcend the mastery of movement and to discover new interior horizons. Beyond her exceptional know-how, Yuko is a luminous woman. Her energy radiates, has no limits and is highly contagious!

I have had the pleasure of working with Yuko in two different companies. In the first instance offering yoga classes on site, and more recently she has literally created the space for our teams to breathe. Yuko’s special ability to connect and deeply empathize with people from all cultures and backgrounds, has resulted in quite a fan club at Hermès, who connect every week for breathing and meditation sessions.

“ Yuko brings more than a yoga class to our clients, she brings her entire personality through her classes, she is solar, caring and positive! She offers our customers a type of yoga specific to her but also and above all tailor-made. Breathing, posture, self-confidence and thriving are the major ingredients. Yuko has a unique and endearing personality that you should get to know and keep close to you. ”

About Yuko

Hi, I’m Yuko! I believe in the limitless potential of the human spirit and the powerful connections we share. My journey has been one of resilience, adaptability, and a deep commitment to co-creating our futures together.

What is your yoga journey and how has yoga impacted your life personally?

I kicked off my yoga journey in Tokyo in 2001 while juggling a hectic advertising career and training for triathlons. I needed balance and a way to recharge and yoga became my go-to sanctuary.

Now, yoga not only keeps me grounded but and gives me the energy to stay the happy go lucky gal, alive, poised and agile that is my authentic me as it helps me avoid getting caught up in the chaos of life!

My favourite yoga moto, Do something today that your future self will thank you for.

How long have you been teaching and what keeps you motivated?

I’ve been teaching for close to 25 years, and what keeps me motivated is seeing the positive transformation in my students. Witnessing how simple practices like breathwork and movement can bring clarity, energy, and well-being to people’s lives is incredibly rewarding. Each class reinforces my passion for helping others experience that connection and lightness, which continually inspires me to keep sharing and evolving as a teacher.

I don't run far nor fast, can I still join the Prana Running session?

Yes, absolutely, Prana Running is all about connecting with the breath and enjoying the process, not about speed or distance. Whether you are a beginner or seasoned runner, the focus is on fun mindful movement at your own pace. Everyone is welcome!

How can I be more balanced at work

WORKPLACE WELLBEING
Learning to breathe empowers you to contribute to creating a healthy work environment. It also helps your ability to decrease mental fatigue and stress, to save energy for a sustainable work-life balance promoting long-term wellbeing.

Breathing creates time and space. Room to breathe boosts mental clarity, team effectiveness, moral and successes.

What do you hope to share with your students through your teachings and what unique techniques do you incorporate?

My goal is to help you experience just how powerful simple breathing techniques can be for your mind and body, giving you more vitality and energy. In our classes, we’ll blend science with philosophy in a way that’s fun and easy to understand, so you’ll always know what you’re doing and why it works. I focus a lot on nasal breathing and the importance of exhaling to really help you feel those benefits come to life.
