FROM BEGINNERs TO PROFESSIONALs
Movement for all!
Shun has worked with a diverse range of students—from beginners who couldn’t touch their toes, to aspiring circus artists who were successfully admitted to top international training programs, as well as yoga teachers, physical therapists, actors, and professional performers.
Drawing from expertise in:
- Yoga (flexibility, strength, mindfulness)
- Dance & Movement (body control, improvisation, creative expression)
- Circus Arts (handstands, aerial skills, and more)
Depending on the student's needs, Shun teaches for following goals:
・Physical preparation (building a functional, resilient body)
・Movement training (coordination, control, and adaptability)
・Performing Arts (embodied expression and creativity)
Rooted in methods learned from top professionals around the world, each training is tailored to the student’s goals and level—from complete beginners to those preparing for elite performance careers.
Six Pillars of movement
Method Overview
To build a “body that moves well,” SHUN METHOD is structured around six foundational pillars.
These 6 Pillars serve as the core framework of the program, and are recommended for those enrolled in advanced-level courses.
Please refer to the course overview chart to see the class and course types.
For those in entry-level courses, not all six pillars are covered—so beginners can rest assured.
In single-session private lessons, content is customised based on your specific goals.
Here is the course Course Overview to find your best class type.
1. Movement
Develop foundational skills in body control such as isolation, integration, tension, and release — core techniques that support all movements.
2. Flexibility
Combination of yoga and circus styles of stretching, increase your range of motion and aim for a supple, adaptable body.
3. Strength
Build core strength, endurance, and functional power through bodyweight exercises—progressively and safely.
4. Floor Flow
Enhance spatial awareness, coordination, and creativity through floorwork inspired by yoga flows and dance.
5. Hanging
Through hanging drills, develop pulling strength, core stability, and mobility around the shoulders.
6. Balance
Improve focus, control, and proprioception by practicing handstands, single-leg balances, and other stability drills.

MY MISSION
What I do this for!
From my personal experiences growing up in both Japan and the UK, I found myself — whether consciously or not — drawn to non-verbal forms of communication, such as visual and performing arts.
Throughout my journey, from starting as an art student and breakdancing in front of the London Eye to performing with companies like Cirque du Soleil, I’ve had the privilege of connecting with people from diverse backgrounds, beliefs, and nationalities.
As a graphic design student during the era of the first iPhone and early discussions around AI advancement, I came to the conclusion that the physical world would only grow in importance.
“Art and movement for all.” is my mission statement.
These experiences laid the foundation for my purpose: to share the transformative power of the performing arts and physical practice. One quote I humbly offer is: “Art saves the soul, and exercise saves the body.”
Whether it's expressed through yoga, dance, or circus arts, I believe the core remains the same: through movement, we grow, connect, and deepen our understanding of ourselves and others.
My aim is to create the best possible experience for every individual who joins my class — to help them discover the joy, freedom, and fulfillment that art and movement can offer.
I look forward to meeting you!
