Nao Habata Tutor Profile

This tutor is currently on leave.

Hello! My name is Nao and I have been teaching yoga for 10 years.
I am currently living in a place called Mysore, India.
 
Mysore is said to be the holy land of Ashtanga Yoga, and many people from all over the world come here to practice yoga.
 
I practice yoga in India for about six months per year, and then I teach yoga in Ishigaki Island for the other six months. This year, however, I decided to stay in India for a while longer instead of returning home because of Covid.
 
 
In Japan, I taught lessons at yoga studios in Tokyo and Saitama.
I have also taught at a yoga studio in the Philippines and a yoga retreat center in Cambodia.
I love to travel (especially within Southeast Asia), so I have also held yoga lessons during my travels.
 
 
I started practicing yoga more than ten years ago.
As a Thai massage therapist, I was interested in yoga, but it took me quite a while to incorporate yoga into my daily life.
 
During my travels in India, I met a wonderful yoga teacher in a place called Rishikesh, and from there my exploration of yoga took off and it became an integral part of my life. This teacher was an Iyengar yoga teacher.
I practiced Iyengar Yoga and Hatha Yoga for a while, but one of her classes led me to shift to Ashtanga Yoga, and now I mainly practice Ashtanga.
There are many different styles of yoga in the world, but the goal is the same.
I believe that yoga is to make the mind and body healthy.
In general, classes that claim to be yoga are often about practicing poses, but breathing and meditation are also an important part of yoga.
 
Pose practice, breathing practice, and meditation are the three things I do every day.
 
 
If you are somewhat interested in yoga, I would like you to take a step forward.
I’ve been practicing yoga for over ten years, and I’m so glad I found it!
 
I hope that I can share what I have experienced and learned through yoga with many people.
 
 
My classes are open to anyone, and I try to create a friendly atmosphere so that you can relax and have fun practicing, so don’t worry even if you’re a beginner!
 
Since I offer classes from India, you may occasionally hear unfamiliar sounds during class (such as cows mooing and rickshaws in the background), but I hope you can enjoy that as we! lol
↑ This is what it looks like in Mysore, India, where I live.

↑ Here’s a shot of the yoga class I’m currently attending in Mysore!
I practice Ashtanga Yoga here for three hours every morning, six days a week!
