Introduction from Yuriko
One of the most important lessons I’ve learned from my yoga practice is not to take myself too seriously. I bring joy into every class. Both the KonMari™ method and yoga have led me to a life of gratitude and contentment. I hope you can come to a class so I can share the joy of yoga with you. Spark Joy Yoga classes allow you to make time for yourself.
Take a moment to focus on your breath and to align with your ideal life. Spark joy on your mat!
