Nothing connects the mat to the rest of the day. That is what we are trying to fix.

01

The story behind this studio

Peregrine Bastion is a small yoga studio in Ooi, Kumagaya, in Saitama Prefecture. We built it around one plain observation: students come for a few weeks, feel better, then drift away once work and family get busy. The classes were fine. The problem was that nothing connected the mat to the rest of the day. So we treat yoga as a daily habit rather than a weekly appointment, with short classes, breathing you can repeat at home, and a few things worth owning for a home practice.

The studio

Peregrine Bastion offers four class formats (Foundation, Flow, Restorative Evening, and Pranayama and Meditation), a six-week seasonal series each autumn, and private sessions by appointment. We work with students at very different levels, from complete beginners to people coming back after a long gap, and we keep groups small so the teacher can see everyone in the room. Ask us who will teach your first class when you get in touch.

Classes that fit real schedules

Morning, lunchtime, and evening sessions through the week. We keep groups small so the teacher can actually see you.

Lifestyle, not just postures

We talk about sleep, breath, seasonal eating, and the small daily habits that make a practice stick between sessions.
