Hatha Yoga Lover's Advice List

Hatha Yoga Lover Japan 35 years in Japan

I am a Gyoseishoshi (Administrative Procedures Specialist) in Japan, a certified tour guide, and a Hatha yoga instructor. My interest, as a Gyoseishoshi, is to help facilitate essential administrative procedures for foreign residents in Japan, and to provide community based services including sharing information on my hometown, Chiba area. I have established a non-profit organization in the town hoping to create a tight-knit community of local residents and expat families. I am also interested in helping yoga friends around the globe to get connected by exploring Japanese culture and history particularly through yoga workshops and local hospitality tours in Japan. I had an opportunity to become a Hatha yoga instructor during my two-and-a-half-year stay in India. After coming back to my home country, I got a license to work as an English tour guide interpreter in Japan.
I look forward to sharing information on interesting topics and events.
