About Me

CURRENT MISSION

DANCE as though no one is watching. LOVE as though you've never been hurt. SING as though no one can hear you. LIVE as though heaven is on earth. - Souza

ABOUT ME

From my teens to twenties, I've loved small underground theaters in Tokyo, so I have some experiences as a actress, costume design and making, story writing.
Also I was working in the printing company almost 5years as a planning/sales. It was also very interesting to meet a lot of people through my job. Actually I learned so many things there, more than university.
But now I enjoy teaching yoga at the countryside of Japan and travel organic farms and yoga places in the world!
