Under the slogan 'Creating a world where people with and without illnesses can live naturally,' AnyOne Project (Headquarters: Nerima-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Yuki Kozaki), an organization led by three individuals with chronic illnesses, will launch the 'Inclusive Yoga Instructor Certification Course' on August 1, 2026, to teach children that 'it is okay to be different.' We have begun recruiting the 0th cohort as 'project partners' to create the first steps of inclusive yoga together. We have prepared special plans for the 0th cohort, and early-bird discounts are available until June 19. This course is a 'yoga that anyone can do, valuing oneself and others,' born from the combination of Yuki Kozaki's personal experience as a chronic illness patient, her 10 years of experience as a patient group representative, and her expertise as a yoga instructor. This yoga course, which systematizes education and inclusive perspectives, is a new initiative with few precedents in Japan. We will hold an online trial session ahead of the course launch. You can experience inclusive yoga firsthand. The session will cover questions such as 'What is inclusive yoga?' and 'What is the value of being selected for the NIKE and Yomiuri Giants grant program?' in one hour. Your yoga experience can empower children. Please experience inclusive yoga as a first step into a new field. Participants in the trial session will receive special benefits for course registration.
