Let's learn Japanese with a native through a casual talk

-------About me
Name: Ayaka
Origin: Osaka
Japanese: Standard Japanese, Kansai dialect
Jobs: Flight Attendant (past), Yoga Instructor (active)
Hobbies: Traveling, Yoga, Photography, Walking and hiking, Cooking, Skiing, Animal lover

----------About the Lesson---------------------
The main focus will be on "Speaking."
Q. Why is speaking the main focus?
A. We want you to experience the joy of speaking Japanese through free talk. Just learning words from manga is not easy to understand what natives say in daily life. I will assist you in learning vocabulary and acquiring natural expressions by speaking with native Japanese speakers.

-----A message to the students at the end-----
I love cultural exchange and have a friendly personality. Having traveled to various countries and learning German, I understand the challenges and joys of learning a new language firsthand. This makes me happy to be able to help you learn Japanese. I look forward to the day when we can have enjoyable conversations together.

About Me

My interest in yoga began at the age of 12 when my grandmother, a yogini, introduced me to various poses. Since then, I have fallen in love with yoga. From a young age, influenced by my father—an acupuncturist and osteopath—I have always been fascinated by the body’s systems and Eastern medicine. In 2022, aspiring to become a teacher, I decided to deepen my practice and learn not only the poses but also the philosophy behind them and their effects.

During my years working varied shifts and across different time zones as a flight attendant, yoga was crucial for maintaining a healthy balance. I see yoga as a mirror for the mind. I still remember one day in class when tears spontaneously welled up during shavasana, revealing an intense release of emotions and stress. In daily life, there are many distractions that cause us to forget about ourselves and disconnect. Through yoga, I found a way to connect with my heart and see myself by synchronizing my breath and movements.

I would be happy to help you connect with yourself, feel more confident, and return to your daily life with a shining smile after my class.

-About the Class- This is a private class, personalised to support your body and mind based on your individual needs. Whether you’re looking to establish a healthy routine with weekly sessions or refine your practice with personalised pose adjustments, I will guide you with care and attention. The class is influenced by Hatha and Flow yoga. We begin with a foundational Hatha yoga practice, followed by meditation and gentle massage techniques inspired by Shiatsu to enhance relaxation and energy flow. Yoga is not just about physical movement—it is a practice that brings harmony between your body, mind, and soul. It offers a moment of stillness in a fast-paced world, allowing you to observe yourself, deepen self-awareness, and cultivate inner peace. This is not a competition—it’s a time just for you. :) I am looking forward to seeing you.

German Language for Beginners (Deutsch - A1 und A2)
German as a foreign language can be hard, especially regarding the grammar part. Always focusing on the structures of the sentences can be challenging and demotivating when trying to connect the sentences in a communication environment. That is why with the help of this class, you'll get more confident in building strong sentences without the stress usually involved. As a foreign speaker of German of over 3 years, there's no other person that understands the struggles better than I do. We will cover all the fundamentals with the background of grammar and syntax so that we are able to create a strong base for future advanced levels.
