Wednesday, May 26
6:20pm-6:50pm (30min session)
Celebrating full moon Wednesday night, we will offer an evening version of “Wellness Wednesdays”. Usually, we virtually offer either Bilingual Yoga or Meditation with Japanese Singing Bowl during the lunchtime every Wednesday. On this special occasion, both instructors will join together in the evening and you will experience both yoga and meditation in one virtual session on JFLA's Facebook Live!
In the quiet relaxing setting at your home, stretch your body by Hikaru’s English & Japanese instruction while absorbing sounds by Yuki’s Japansese singing bowls. The full moon power will help to release your stress and give you energy!
No reservation is necessary. No need to have a FB account. Just visit our Facebook page!

Hikaru was born in Japan and is a native speaker of Japanese. She has been practicing yoga since 2008 and after years of studying yoga, she found Iyengar yoga. Iyengar yoga has changed her very inspiration for life and Hikaru had developed a deeper connection to yoga ever since then. She has been under the mentor of Lisa Walford and has had the opportunity to study twice with BKS Iyengar’s daughter, Geeta, in Pune, India. At the moment she is also receiving meditation training from Bhikkkhu Dhammaananda.
Grateful for her fortune to have learned from such outstanding teachers, she had eventually developed the aspiration to teach. Hikaru hopes to spread their teachings and knowledge as well as her own to future students.
