LESSONS IN GROUPS & PRIVATE SESSIONS
Mizue Tamaki has been teaching Okido Yoga in Europe for more than 35 years. She prefers to work with small groups, so she can give personal attention to everyone.
She traveled with master Oki as his translator in many countries and is now busy translating his books. She translated B.K.S. Iyengar's "Light on Yoga" and "Light on Pranayama" into Japanese.
Studying from Noëlle Perez - founder of the ‘Institute Superieur d’aplomb’ - since 1979, helped her to better understand one of the aspects of Masahiro Oki’s teaching of the Natural Body and so increase the effects of asana’s and various exercises. To regain the natural angle of the pelvis is an essential difference with most physical training and teachings in yoga schools.
She is responsible for the residential Okido Yoga
dojo in Laren (Gld) and for the Teachers' Training.
Students' remarks:
Mizue doesn't teach many Asana's, but 'I went back to my hatha yoga class and I was amazed that I could do easily Asana's I had not been able to do well before, and without forcing. I had an endless list of successful results in performing Asana's after her class.' (Astangha - Iyengar yoga practitioner)
Mizue is not a meditation teacher but 'I can sit much better without pain in meditation.' (meditation practitioner of several years)
Mizue is not a specialist in breathing, but 'I have never experienced that air can fill the lungs so fully from corner to corner.' (certified breathing therapist)
Mizue does not know Taichi, but 'I can now practise Taichi without the knee pain I had for a long time.' (Taichi practitioner)

Okido yoga is the research of hów to do rather than whát to do.

HUMAN BASIC POSTURE
Mizue Tamaki's approach is on the base of the human, natural position of the pelvis. Her 30 years of experience in teaching has proven to be effective and meaningful for lower back pain, spine alignmentm, natural breathing, but is many times controversial to modern yoga anatyomy.
FOR COMPUTER WORKERS
We spend a lot of time sitting in front of computers. You can join any of the lessons mentioned, as there’s specific attention given to the posture during work. Furthermore, there are many exercises given to relax the shoulders, eyes and brain.
BACK PROBLEMS
There are different causes for back pain. Sometimes it’s a result of a unhealthy condition of the organs; bad posture can be involved. Many people feel more or less some discomfort in the back. It will not be necessary to give up or restrict activities, if we tackle the problem and improve the condition of the back. You can come to any of the lessons.
Hip joints: many people have their hip joints to be operated. Her approach for natural position of the pelvis helped many people to avoid an operation. Why not try before making the decision for operation.
For serious problems, private sessions are recommended.
PREGNANCY & POST-PREGNANCY
It’s ideal to start yoga before becoming pregnant.
Mizue doesn’t give lessons to pregnant women. She can recommend other teachers.
Mizue Tamaki has a lot of experience of helping women with post-pregnancy symptoms like suffering from loose abdomen, sagging organs, bladderproblems after delivery etc.
PRIVATE SESSIONS
Mizue Tamaki gives private sessions either in Amsterdam or in Laren (Gld). She gives workshops on weekends or holidays in Laren.
She gives workshops on weekends or during holidays in Laren.
