FACE YOGA WITH KOKO HAYASHI

Even a yogi who took their inaugural step on the mat yesterday (hooray if this is you!) is aware of the abundant types of yoga practices and flows out there. But as experienced as you are, face yoga is probably not something you’ve heard of. not in your purview. Allow us to put face yoga expert Koko Hayashi on your radar.

The Face Yoga Method was originally created by Fumiko Takatsu, with Hayashi adopting and teaching the practice in 2018 after practicing for more than a decade — A.K.A. your face is in great, experienced hands. Koko believes in the power of natural methods and uses her knowledge of facial muscles to activate and lift them with non-invasive tools. For clean beauty enthusiasts like us, we’re already intrigued. What else does it do and where do we sign up?

Well,Koko's 28-day program invites you to put your best face forward with 10 unique classes that naturally boost your skin’s radiance, ease facial tension, and elevate your daily self-care routine. Let’s face it: we put so much effort into caring for our bodies and it’s time to give our faces the equal attention they deserve.

These daily exercises are specially designed to awaken sleeping muscles that lift your skin and simultaneously relax overworked muscles, thereby restoring balance to your face. This process increases circulation, which in turn nourishes your skin for a healthy glow from within.

Koko's series includes four, distinct weekly face yoga routines, plus five specialized posture tutorials that you can incorporate into daily life. Our personal favorite? The “How To Eat” class. You’ll be surprised to know that your parents telling you to sit up straight and chew your food properly actually had some merit (and hidden beauty benefits).

As with any part of your fitness journey, consistency is key — commit to face yoga every day and the long-term benefits will follow.
