Meet The Facilitator and The Guest Teachers

Prana Retreat Japan - Founder and organizer, Haruka Sasaki

Haruka Sasaki

Retreat Facilitator and Yoga teacher

Born and raised in Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan. A yoga instructor based in Darwin, Australia since 2014. After moving to Australia, I started teaching asanas and breathing techniques at a local university and yoga studios, and also got involved in local yoga festivals and events. I study yoga philosophy in the tradition of Krishnamacharya, and since 2021, I have been running an online yoga school called Shraddhaa Yoga Institute, specializing in yoga philosophy and theory.

During my university days in Japan, I participated in a community revitalization project in a rural area of Kyushu. It served as a catalyst for contemplating how I could personally contribute to the challenges Japan faces, such as rapid aging society, declining birth rates, and rural depopulation.

As time went on living away from Japan, I started thinking about how I could share the goodness of my hometown, Fukuoka, and give back to the community. This led me to initiate the activities of Prana Retreat Japan, where I strive to showcase the local attractions while offering yoga programs to people from around the world.

I am a passionate gardener at a community garden in Australia, and enjoy cooking, camping and chanting in my free time.
