On the Day
Attendees on the day ranged from their 20s to 60s, with a diverse mix of ages and genders!
Although more than half participated alone, even first-time attendees naturally struck up conversations, and the atmosphere quickly became warm and inviting. 🌿😌
In the lesson, participants first chose their preferred mat design, then gently adjusted their bodies.
The lesson was led by
Instructor Sayuri, who studied yoga in India and teaches yoga and stretching to a wide range of ages, from 5 to 90 years old.
Her natural and supportive teaching style is captivating, creating an atmosphere where even beginners can feel at ease.
We received feedback such as "my breathing became deeper than usual" and "my body felt lighter and my mind reset," and it was wonderful to feel that relaxed atmosphere spread throughout the entire space.
After the lesson, all 10 mat designs were displayed, and
we discussed the meaning behind each design and the story of how 8ed Studio was founded.
The Canvas Stretch Mat has a unique feature: it is thicker than a typical yoga mat, making it less painful to kneel on concrete floors and preventing coldness when lying down.
We received a lot of wonderful feedback, including:
"It was so comfortable, I almost fell asleep."
"It's non-slip, thick, and warm."
"The more I use it, the more I love it."
"I had a pattern in mind, but seeing them all in person made me want them all, and I couldn't decide."
As staff members, participating in the lesson ourselves was a moment to reaffirm the importance of "time to reset oneself" amidst busy daily life.
Finally
Through this workshop, we hope that we were able to deliver not only the comfort of the mats themselves,
but also a gentle time for self-reflection.
We plan to hold workshops regularly in the future.
We hope to see you in the next city! 🌿😌
