Junko (Ikuko) Hosoya has been practising massage since 2005, originally in Kyoto. She has been based in Melbourne, Australia for past 10years. She has been trained in the massage lineages of Traditional Thai Yoga, Hawaiian Lomi Lomi, Hot Stone, Chi Nei Tsang(Abdominal massage), Pregnancy, Ayurveda. In Australia studied Diploma of Shiatsu & Oriental Therapies and Diploma of Remedial Massage. In addition to these styles she has started to study Traditional Chinese Medicine in 2019. It’ll take about 6 years to graduate.
As a way to rebalance her own body energetically, she then began to explore Yoga. After the first class she was amazed at how she was able to reconnect with her physical, emotional and spiritual self. The experience was very powerful and so began her journey as a yogi. Her yoga travels have taken her worldwide, where she has studied many different forms such as Hatha, Sivananda, Anusara, Vinyasa Flow, Shadow Yoga and Yin Yoga. Ikuko completed her Teacher Training in India in Sivananda ashram (March 2010) My passion is yoga, massage and healthy food. I believe yoga calms the mind and strenghtens the body. In turn you become mentally disciplined, able to think more positively and have patience, clarity and focus. Healthy foods play a vital role in your happiness, wellbeing and survival. So balance your life with yoga and healthy eating, and your body, mind and spirit will thank you. |
