Join Us for an Extraordinary Yoga Retreat Amidst Japan’s Autumn Splendor

Experience the breathtaking beauty of Japan during its most magical season! Known as ‘Kouyo,’ the annual transformation of leaves into brilliant shades of red, orange, and gold holds special significance in Japanese culture.Immerse yourself in a vibrant, autumn experience that celebrates the rich tapestry of nature, culture, and culinary delights.

Our visit will include the exciting and modern city, Tokyo, and Japan‘s most iconic landmark, Mt. Fuji, and also the beautiful countryside of Nagano where you will have a chance to visit an ancient Shinto shrine.

Throughout the retreat, we will savor authentic Japanese cuisine prepared with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Each meal—from delicate sushi to artful kaiseki—will be a celebration of Japan’s rich culinary traditions, enhancing your experience as you nourish both your body and spirit.

Join us in this transformative journey, where yoga, cultural exploration, and the stunning natural beauty of Japan come together to create cherished memories and a deep appreciation for the beauty of life.
