We focus on…

  • Breathing isn’t just about taking in oxygen. It’s deeply connected to your autonomic nervous system, blood circulation, and even emotional balance.

    When shallow breathing becomes a habit, it can disrupt your nervous system, hormone regulation, and emotional stability.

    That’s why during SHOKOLATES we bring awareness and fix your breath so you can avoid issues and learn to regulate it.

  • Are you listening to your body?

    Where does it feel relaxed or tense?

    Do you know why, and how to fix it?

    Through SHOKOLATES, you will explore and reconnect with your body, understanding how it works and how to take care of it.

  • Pilates is often referred to as “moving meditation”.

    Through mindful movement, SHOKOLATES will improve your concentration, making you feel naturally more present.

Testimonials

  • " My body feels so much lighter!"

    Since I started SHOKOLATES, I have been feeling great!

    I reached out to Shoko Takashita because I had severe hip and back pain.

    After a few sessions, I started noticing that my hips were naturally aligning and my posture significantly improved. Over time my body started feeling lighter and balanced.

    Thank you, Shoko, your sessions made a great difference in my life!

  • “I love Shoko's session!"

    I absolutely loved Shoko’s Pilates class!

    It worked my entire body in such a balanced and gentle way. By the end of the session, I felt energized, centered, and so good in my own skin.

    Her instructions are clear and encouraging, and the atmosphere she creates is both peaceful and motivating. Can’t wait for the next class!
