ひとみプロフィール

Please scroll down for English.

小学校、中学校をグアム島で過ごす。高校、大学を日本で卒業。卒業後、某音楽出版社勤務。2年半で辞め、フリーの通訳に。ある誕生日にフラッと立ち寄っ た近所のヨガ・スタジオ（有名なAshtangaのスクールです）で受けた授業が運命の出会いで、そこから一気にハマって行く。２００４年、病気で仕事 を中断している間に、軽い気持ちで友人と立ち上げたヨガ・プロジェクトが予想外の好評で、レギュラー・クラスやあらゆるヨガのワークショップのオーガナ イズをすることに。２００７年4月から新たなワークショップ専門プロジェクトであるSAKURA YOGAを主催。現在では、本業の通訳の仕事をこなしながら、ワークショップのオーガナイジングに日々励む毎日。もちろん、ヨガの練習も。

最初の授業から、どんどん虜になり、中毒状態が未だに続いています。ヨガは私にとっては、ライフ・ワークになり、ヨガで学んだことを日々の生活に当ては めています。これから、３０年、４０年と長くつき合っていけるパートナーを見つけたような気がします。

Hitomi spent her childhood in Guam. Thereafter, she returned to Japan to attend high school and college. Upon graduation, after working at a music publishing company for two and a half years, she became a freelance interpreter. She was first introduced to Ashtanga Yoga when she happened to attend one of the classes at a local yoga studio. Ever since, yoga has been her passion.

In 2004, when Hitomi took some time off her freelance job due to an illness, she and her friend started to organize yoga classes and workshops, which turned out to be extremely successful. In April 2007, she sponsors Sakura Yoga, which mainly organizes various yoga workshops. Currently, alongside her freelance interpreter job, she organizes these workshops, and, of course, practices yoga everyday.

Hitomi has become addicted to yoga ever since that first class she took years ago. It has become part of her life, and she wishes to apply basic yoga principles and practices to everyday life.
