Akie is a yoga and meditation practitioner, as well as a violin player. Since the age of 10, she has been drawn to the question, “Who am I?” Growing up with psychology, philosophy, and Buddhism books, she believes her spiritual journey began early in life.
Her path deepened when she discovered yoga at 22. That experience was a turning point, as she felt a real inner power to support her own healing.
While working in a financial company and later organizing an NPO, she continued her asana and meditation practice without interruption.
Today, more than 15 years after beginning her practice, she feels even more inspired by the journey. “I feel very blissful to share what I’ve been learning and experienced. Yoga is literally how you live with such amazing ancient wisdom. You may see your true self today, or maybe not. Don’t expect—let’s enjoy the fruitful moment and see what’s coming!”
