A “Glocal” Supporter Promoting Harmony of Mind and Body
Born in Tokyo, Japan, Yoriko had a strong attraction to foreign cultures and languages since her late teens. After leaving college, she explored various fields, including establishing a shared house, working as an international telephone operator, and providing translation and interpretation services. Through her travels to several countries, she deepened her understanding of diverse cultures while also developing her business acumen by working for both Japanese and foreign-affiliated companies.
Her yoga journey began with a personal quest for physical well-being and mental balance. After completing Ken Harakuma’s Ashtanga Yoga teacher training course, she furthered her knowledge by studying Buddhism and counseling with a nun, as well as Zen and yoga with a teacher from the Zen Yoga Institute. She sought out the “yoga wisdom necessary for the modern age.” Currently, as the leader of Narita Yoga, she conducts community-based yoga classes, gives lectures to local governments and educational institutions, and offers yoga-guided tours to international guests, all while emphasizing the importance of “connection” both locally and globally.
In addition to her yoga practice, she leverages her language skills and international sensibilities to provide interpretation and translation services for corporations and events, as well as business support in the fields of yoga and healthcare. Many clients trust her as a “local interpreter” who can adeptly handle everything from promoting harmony of mind and body to offering comprehensive business support.
