The Ankatsu Studio exists wherever nature allows. Classes take place outdoors, where natural light and fresh air support well-being for children, teens, and adults. The educational methodology integrates fine arts and yoga and is currently being researched. The two disciplines reinforce each other, encouraging focus, confidence, creativity, and commitment, while nurturing good habits and a healthy body. Students develop a love for both the process of creating art and practicing yoga—skills that benefit them throughout life.
