Service Description

Join Michelle Pietrzak-Wegner, Certified Shinrin Yoku/Forest Bathing Guide and Advanced Level Yoga Teacher/Certified Yoga Therapist for a special day of connection in the deep Okutama Forest. Experience slowing down, awakening your senses, cultivating yoru curiosity, replenishing your body, and connecting with the forest and other women in a beautifully facilitated journey on the Hinoki Fragrance Trail in Okutama. We will start with a mindful gentle hike from Okutama station, immerse into the forest with Forest Bathing, rejuvenate our bodies with gentle yoga under the canopy, followed by a forest tea gathering. Participants are invited to join in a group casual lunch afterwards (not included in the price) at the station before heading back to Tokyo. The Hikawa/Hikawa Gorge area is approximately 1 hour 40 minutes by train from Shinjuku; Okutama station is the last stop on the Chuo Line. This experience is open to women and those who identify as women. It is limited to 6 participants. All participation is invitational; where there is nothing strenuous the short hike and forest walk does have some incline that includes areas of rocky and inconsistent surfaces; the yoga session will be slow, intentional, safe and gentle. All facilitation trauma-informed. COST PER PARTICIPANT: $50USD (¥7000) REGISTRATION REQUIRED NO LATER 17 October 2024; registration will be taken on a first-come, first-served basis; when the participant list becomes full you will be notified that you will be added to the waiting list. After your online registration payment here, you will be emailed a confirmation from Michelle along with the request to complete an electronic registration and waiver form that will take under 3 minutes to complete.
