Atelier Towa will be closed for all commissions, lessons, and workshops while on maternity leave from July 1st, as I am expecting our first baby in late July, until I find good balance in my motherhood.

In the past 7 months, it has been a wonderful journey teaching lessons and workshops as I feel my baby grow in my belly — meeting new faces, and seeing wonderful progress in some of the dedicated students. Seeing you all grow encourages me to grow to be a better teacher, artist and an individual — we all grow together. Looking forward to seeing everyone again once I get back to practice!

Please check back on our website later this year, for any updates and announcements for new projects and workshops. I will make an announcement when I decide to resume my practice and start taking projects. It is important to me and my family to cherish this precious time together. In the meantime, please feel free to follow me on instagram at @aoi_gm, I’ll be sharing my new journey with our baby from time to time!

For all inquiries (commissions, performances, workshops, lessons…), please contact us later in the fall. Please excuse me for any delay in response in advance!

Thank you for your support and much love,

Aoi Yamaguchi
