Satoko was born and raised in Tokyo and started practicing ballet when she was only five years old.  While studying for her Bachelor of Arts of Commerce in Tokyo, she also pursued certification through AFAA (Aerobics and Fitness Association of America) to teach aerobic dance, step aerobics & body sculpting.  She moved to the United States in 1994 and completed a rigorous 500-hour comprehensive Pilates training through Body Kinetics of San Francisco.  After moving to Los Angeles, she taught at 3 Pilates studios, Santa Monica Dance Studio, Mari Windsor of West Hollywood and Studio for Balanced Body at Culver City.  When she moved to Lexington with her husband and two sons in 2011, she began studying yoga.  She completed a 200-hour Vinyasa yoga teacher training program in 2019.  Satoko believes we can connect our mind through movement and breath as we dance in the language that we love.  Please contact her at 859-559-6523 for private sessions.
