SHINE is a personal yoga salon in Koto ward, Umibe, which opened in May 2024.
SHINE’s concept creates a calm, healthy, happy, and beautiful self and daily life.
The modern lifestyle has many stressors, including work, taking care of oneself and family, and living in a big, fast-paced city. That’s why Ms. Maya wants to help women look and feel their best. These yoga sessions are not just about stretching but about becoming brighter, happier, and more relaxed, so you can take on life with more ease and grace.
Lessons are fully customized, one-on-one sessions.
You can share your current state, whether you’re in a bad mood, feeling a little sick, or having pain, and Ms. Maya will adjust the program to help elevate you and make you feel better. You can also share your goals, and she will do her best to help you achieve them.
Students are women in their 20s to 60s. Maternity and postpartum lessons, baby yoga, and baby massage are also popular.
Many people think they need to be flexible to do yoga, but that is incorrect. While doing yoga regularly will certainly make you more flexible, it’s not a necessary component of these sessions. It’s about moving with your breath, breathing deeply, being aware of your posture, and connecting with your body. All ages and levels are welcome here.
Ms. Maya, the owner, is very kind and teaches personalized care methods you can do at home.
It’s recommended to move upon waking up to get your blood flowing, and self-massage is an easy and great way to do this. We even tried using large, textured rollers under our calves, thighs, and back, which felt very soothing and relieving. You don’t have to push yourself too much if you don’t want to. The heated floor made it very comfortable to do the movements on, and the atmosphere was very relaxing and cozy.
You can also take lessons with a friend or family member (up to 2 people at a time). Sessions for larger groups will be held at a different venue.
If you feel more comfortable or motivated by having another person do the session with you, feel free to join as a pair. However, one-on-one sessions are great for a continuously personalized session that focuses all the attention on your needs.
Ms. Maya is sweet and kind and cares about making women happy. She wants to see women age gracefully, maintaining their strength and mobility into old age.
